DVR not playing back recordings

I installed a Deco mesh system several months back and set the ATT fiber router to pass through mode.  I have 1 hardwired and 2 wireless set top boxes.  Ever since the switch to the deco router, I have been unable to playback recordings from the DVR on the TV’s with the wireless boxes.  The hardwired TV plays back fine. I have reset the system and rebooted several times with no success.

Make sure your equipment (TV and cable) is properly connected and powered on. Make sure the coax cable is connected to the outlet. Remove any objects around your receiver to allow proper ventilation. Refresh your receiver.

@Boldinj make sure the wireless access point that feeds the tv to wireless set top boxes is connected via ethernet(cat5e or cat6) directly to the gateway.  none of the dvr or wap or set top boxes should be connected to the deco.
