Home network issues

Have been direct stream customer for 2 years.  Internet provider is Starlink.   Live in PA but Star link changed IP address to one that is Virginia based. Have 4 TVs in our home. This year we started receiving messages that we aren't connected to our home network and followed steps to update. That lasts for a week or so and then start seeing same messages again. How can we watch on the TVs in our home at the same time? Looking for a reason to stay with directv but not being able to watch on the 4 TVs in our home is frustrating. We cannot be the only customers that have starlink. Why can't directv base home network on billing address? Its 2025.

We appreciate your loyalty and understand your frustration, @Kerryac. The in-home network can only be set to the IP address linked to your Wi-Fi or wired connections. If you're experiencing frequent changes to your IP address, you may reach out to your Internet Service Provider for assistance.
