According to AT&T U-verse:

Any U-Verse TV screen displaying a red "X", Client Initialization error or Diagnostic Info means your system is having trouble communicating. To correct these errors:

  • Unplug the TV's receiver
  • wait 2 minutes
  • plug it back in
  • and then restart.
  • If the error persists: Unplug your residential gateway (you may call it the router), wait 2 minutes, plug it back in and then restart.
  • Note: This will temporarily disrupt Internet, TV, and Voice service.
  • If you still can't watch TV, please contact us

You will be calling 1-800-288-2020 to select Technical Support from the automated switchboard. Unlike other departments, Tech Support is available 24/7.
