How do I reboot my cable set-top box?

Answer:

There are two ways to reboot a cable set-top box.  The most preferred way is option 1.

  • Unplug the power cable from the back of the cable box.
  • Wait 30 seconds.
  • Plug the power cable back into the back of the cable box. The cable box will reboot automatically; it should take no more than 20 minutes.
  • Wait for the time or channel to reappear on front of the cable box.
  • Wait 3 minutes to allow the services to reset.
  • Turn on the TV.

 

2.   You can reboot a cable setup box from the front panel of the cable set-top box.

 

  • To Reset box manually via the cable box press and hold the Vol+, Vol-, and Info buttons on the front of the converter.  This will automatically reboot the box.
