How to refresh your DIRECTV receiver

Many issues, including channels missing from the guide, can be fixed by refreshing and reauthorizing your receiver. To refresh:

1. Go to My equipment & services .
2. Review the equipment you have and identify the impacted receiver(s).
3. Select Refresh receiver to begin. This takes a minute or two and may briefly interrupt your service.
4. If refreshing service doesn’t fix the issue, try restarting your receiver by pressing the red reset button on the side.
