I assume optimum is a cable company. When the EAS signal is sent out to cable boxes, it makes it switch to a different channel and the EAS message is inserted on that channel. Sometimes when the message is over, it may not switch back to the previous channel, and maybe this is why they are asking you to power cycle?

EE background, I agree 100%.
I remember seeing some fairly...uh... vintage cable boxes there (boxes from the early 2000s still in use by long time subscribers who never moved)
