Can I use astound broadband with directv
I currently use centurylink as bundled with my directv. In my area centurylink internet speed is so horribly slow, I’d like to unbundle/cancel my centurylink but keep my directv, and use astound for my internet access. Is this possible?

You can use any internet service or none at all. Internet service is not required for Directv satellite, it just gets you on demand programming.

No worries. If you unbundle with CenturyLink, the DIRECTV bill will not be affected since it's a separate service from your internet provider. If further assistance is needed, don't hesitate to contact us back.

DirecTV can use any home internet for the optional On Demand perks. If you need to get better internet, do what you must.
As a caution, just avoid satellite internet or any other internet that is metered/data capped. The risk is all the background usage, including any initial download when you first connect, will eat through your data allowance resuling in either overage charges or throttling/lower priority.
