Multiple Homes
I have two homes, one primary and one more of a weekend / vacation home. I have 3 TV's in my primary home and 2 in my other home. Often I run down there on the weekend and my wife stays home. Do I need two services then or can I use one service at both locations?
I have 2gb internet at my primary home, 1gb at my secondary both fiber connections so plenty of bandwidth.

Directtvhelp, If you please, can I get a clarification to this reply you offered a couple of years ago:
"You are correct. You can use DIRECTV STREAM on up to 20 compatible devices connected to your home network at the same time. And, use up to three of those streams on the go.
Keep in mind there are some exclusions:
1- Any streams you use out of your home network count toward your 20 total stream limit. Only two streaming devices connected to a TV can be accessed out of the home. For example: one DIRECTV STREAM device and one Firestick. "
My questions:
1) You made this reply a couple of years ago--it is still valid?
2) I'm thinking that "streaming devices", which connect to a TV, include devices like like Roku, Firestick or Xbox, and that a max a of three of these stream types (while away from home network) is imposed.
3) I'm also thinking that that other methods of mobile streaming (for example, using the DirectTV app on an iPhone, or going to the DirectTV website using a browser) are not included in the 3-stream limit but instead count towards the larger 20-stream in-home limit.
Is my thinking accurate regarding "streaming devices:" and other mobile streaming methods?
And finally, here's my situation. I want to have a single DirectTV Stream account for my three locations. I have a Roku stick in two of those locations and an xbox in the third. Will I be able to stream those (simultaneously or not) without hitting the stream limit?
Thanks for your help! Walt
