What is the DIRECTV customer service telephone number for business customers?

Yes, DIRECTV FOR BUSINESS streaming service is limited to select distribution at this time. We’ll update this page in the coming months when distribution expands nationwide. 

If you have TVs in the same vicinity tuned to the same program/game, each TV may stream at a slightly different point in the broadcast. Therefore, DIRECTV Satellite service is recommended for businesses, such as sports bars and restaurants, needing perfectly synchronized broadcasting across all TVs, or that do not have adequate internet bandwidth to support streaming.

Does DIRECTV have streaming for businesses?

Internet connection is required to stream content on a DIRECTV device. For optimal viewing, we recommend a minimum internet speed of 8Mbps or more, per device, to deliver the best experience. 
 
Internet download speed can affect your viewing experience especially with multiple devices connected. If you’re watching DIRECTV on 10 devices/TVs, we recommend a minimum of 80Mbps.

Is Internet required and what is the optimal speed for streaming?

These two services are sold separately. Your cost for DIRECTV will vary based on your TV package selection, and the pricing for your internet service will be determined and billed separately by your internet provider.
