Frequently asked questions

Can you get DIRECTV without a satellite dish?

Yes, DIRECTV also offers packages that send your TV signal over your internet router instead of a satellite dish. These packages cut down on equipment, save on installation, and make great use of fast internet service (e.g., fiber).

Customers who live in multi-unit housing might find these packages especially helpful, since some landlords and HOAs won't let residents mount satellite dishes on the property.

Does DIRECTV still use satellite dishes?

DIRECTV is now available via your third-party internet connection. But yes, the classic DIRECTV satellite dish is also still alive, kicking, and offering stellar TV service.

Customers who live in areas with slow internet might find satellite packages especially helpful, since the signal won’t compete with other traffic on your internet network. Who wants to deal with pixelated TV and slow-loading web pages? No one.

What kind of satellite dish does DIRECTV use?

DIRECTV uses compact, 2-foot satellite dishes that can be mounted either on your house or on a pole. 

Their design follows a satellite technique called “offset,” which lets the receivers capture signal more easily from a bunch of different angles. For you, that means a great signal and flexibility in where you place the satellite dish.
