I’m having the same issue except I only have one box and the rest of my tv’s have Roku. When more then 2 tvs in my house are trying to stream I get an error that tells me that I’m only allowed 2 streams outside of my home. Did you get this resolved?

Hello @taj0502 , let's get all your streams up and running.

Please make sure all your devices are connected to your home network, you can also try to update your DIRECTV STREAM home network location

If this has been done, let us know if you have a static or dynamic IP address.

make sure your Location is set to on in settings when at home you can stream up to 20 different devices at a time you can have 2 tv's outside of your home network and one computer/tablet/cell phone keep in mind anything you use outside your home counts as one of your 20 hope this helps
