Blackouts of image and sound

Anyone out there experiencing one second blackout of image and sound? Does not happen on instant rewind. Does not happen on second television.

Unplug everything.

Plug gateway back in and wait for normal operations.

Plug WAP back in and wait for normal operations.

Plug DVR back in and wait for normal operations.

Plug receivers back in and wait for normal operations.

What's the result?

I have tried all the above steps. I’m trying to figure if the problem is with the box or with my tv.

  2. Scroll down to Help, then press OK.   
  3. Select Information.
  4. Scroll to Troubleshoot & Resolve, then press OK.   
  5. Select the service you want to troubleshoot and allow the interactive diagnostic test to run and complete.   
  6. Follow the onscreen instructions to resolve. Other options may include dispatching a technician or speaking to a Customer Care agent.

Be sure to let us know how it went!

I did all the steps baseball guy listed In. That. Order.

Seems to have done the job. 
Guess there’s a reason he’s The Dude Who Knows. 
Thank You!

With AT&T (and other TV services), lots of computers need to be in synchrony with each other. If one goes even slightly haywire, things can go wonky.

Restarting the tech is always a good first step...phones, laptops, tablets, tv.
