With ultra-fast speeds, Astound internet is built for your needs. Whether you’re watching live sports, 4K movies or multiple streams across different devices, Astound’s network delivers bandwidth and performance. Astound internet offers:

• Multi-Gig speeds: Perfect for households with high streaming and gaming demands
• Whole-home WiFi: Strong coverage through eero in larger homes
• Unlimited data: Stream as much as you want without worrying about data caps

DIRECTV is a fully internet-based TV service, so the quality of your connection makes all the difference. With Astound as your foundation and with speeds up to 2 Gig, you can confidently stream DIRECTV’s full lineup, with live TV, sports and on-demand content, in high quality.

Let’s look at some of the benefits of DIRECTV and Astound together.

DIRECTV is designed to work perfectly with Astound internet. The included Gemini device makes setup easy, with a straightforward setup, eliminating the need for a technician visit.

Just connect the device to your TV and home WiFi (or Ethernet connection), follow the guided on-screen instructions and you’ll be ready to start watching live TV, sports and streaming apps in minutes.

The Gemini device also comes with the Google Gemini Air Smart Remote, which features integrated Google Assistant-powered voice control. With simple voice commands, you can:

• Search for movies, shows and sports
• Launch apps like Netflix, Max, Disney+ and more
• Control playback and navigate the entire interface

With Astound and DIRECTV, it’s even easier to find and watch content without endlessly scrolling through menus.

Your DIRECTV service through Astound includes cloud DVR, providing unlimited recording capacity so you never miss a show or event. All your recordings are stored in the cloud and remain available for up to nine months, giving you the flexibility to watch content on your schedule.

If you previously used the Genie HD DVR, here’s what’s different: Instead of storing shows on a physical hard drive in your home, the new system keeps all recordings online in the cloud. You’ll no longer need a receiver with local storage and there’s no risk of losing recordings due to equipment failure.

Because the Gemini device streams over Astound’s internet, your DVR content is instantly accessible from multiple locations, including your main TV via the Gemini device and on mobile devices using the DIRECTV app.

If you have a 4K-capable television, DIRECTV can deliver an even better viewing experience with 4K HDR streaming on compatible content. This ensures you’re getting the highest possible resolution and color depth, making live sports, movies and premium shows look better than ever before.

Pairing Astound internet with DIRECTV provides a fast, flexible and feature-rich entertainment solution. From the convenience of plug and play setup, to unlimited cloud DVR, voice control with Google Gemini and 4K HDR quality, this bundle delivers everything you need to enjoy premium home entertainment this summer and beyond.

Bundling DIRECTV with Astound unlocks exclusive savings and a better entertainment experience, backed by Astound’s network. Here’s why our customers bundle their services:

Our customers enjoy special bundle rates and promotional offers that aren’t available when purchasing TV and internet separately. Whether you’re selecting the ENTERTAINMENT package or going all-in with DIRECTV PREMIER, you’ll benefit from bundled services, special promotions and a straightforward 2-year price guarantee to lock in savings.

Bundling with Astound means you’ll never have to juggle multiple providers, bills or support contacts. You’ll get:

• One monthly bill for internet and TV
• Astound’s support team ready to assist with any questions about your services
• Everything managed through a single, trusted local provider

When you buy services separately, you may spend more time managing accounts than enjoying your entertainment.

Pairing DIRECTV with Astound’s ultra-fast fiber-rich network is the smart choice: Fast speeds designed for 4K HDR streaming and multi-device households, as well as consistent performance thanks to Astound’s local infrastructure. When your internet and TV are optimized to work together, you get the smooth, seamless experience you expect.
