AT&T U-verse is the AT&T Corporation's fiber optic phone, Internet, and cable TV service line. The process of setting up AT&T U-verse service depends upon what service you want to hook up: AT&T U-verse TV service, AT&T U-verse phone service, or AT&T U-verse Internet service. Prior to any equipment installation, however, AT&T U-verse customers must schedule an appointment with AT&T Customer Service to have a U-verse technician come to their home to install the necessary cable wiring.

Hook Up U-verse Set Top Box to TV

Step 1

Examine your TV for the connection ports available. For best results, connect the set top box, or STB, to your HDTV with an HDMI cable. If your TV doesn't have an HDMI port, but does have a DVI port, you can connect this to the HDMI port on the STB using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter. Because DVI transmits only video, you will also need to connect the audio ports using RCA cables.
