DirecTV itself does not require an internet connection to function for traditional satellite TV service. The satellite dish receives signals directly from satellites, allowing you to watch channels without needing internet access. However, if you’re using DirecTV’s streaming services, like DirecTV Stream (formerly AT&T TV), you would need an internet connection, as it streams content over the web.
In summary:
– Traditional satellite service: No internet required.
– DirecTV Stream (streaming service): Internet is required.
