Can I get Directv Internet, Direct tv Internet or Dishnetwork Internet through my current satellite provider?
- a question that has perplexed man since the begining of time.
Answer: Currently Directv or Dishnetwork cannot deliver you satellite internet access through your existing equipment nor do they have a separate system for this purpose.

We are grateful if you landed on this page looking for satellite internet through your directv provider or direct tv provider. Most likely you are have been frusturated with slow dial-up and do not have dsl or cable internet as an option arrived on this page What is even more frusturating is looking for that simple precise answer to your questions on this and just going around in a circle. In a technical sense thee is some loose association, but the differences currently make it impossible for combining the services together through the current satellite configurations.

Why: Directv and Dishnetwork systems are designed and function only as one way downstream systems and are not capable of upload functions

Uploading and downloading are necessary for surfing the internet. Only a satellite internet provider like Hughesnet is capable of a two way system to provide the uplink and downlink. Please see: What is satellite internet .

It should be noted that Directv or Dishnetwork may be able to resell you another satellite internet service through an afilliation with a satellite internet provider.
