DirecTV Stream and DirecTV Satellite are 2 different paid subscription services. Credentials are not interchangeable between the services.

Outside your home, satellite service only supports mobile devices. To use a streaming device, you must be able to see your receiver.

The weird thing is that it works on my mobile devices and I'm 500 miles from home

Like I mentioned, mobile devices are supported by the satellite service away from home. PC, phones, tablets, etc. TV streaming devices are not supported because it can not receive your satellite receiver to verify the service. If you want out of the home use for TV streaming devices, then you need a subscription for DirecTV Stream not DirecTV Satellite.
