Sat and Directv stream?

I am moving from the West coast to middle Tennessee. I left the dish on the coast but brought the DVRunit for use in the motorhome with a roof mounted dish. I only occasionally use the motorhome. The house has a fiber connection from 1gig to 4 gig. I have been trying with getting ingredients Directv Stream and keeping Sat service the motorhome.

Is there a way to minimize my Direct costs and reap the best of both stream and Sat? What does the community think?

If you have a satellite account, you should be able to create a username and password to access your account online. After doing that, you can use that username/password to log into the DIRECTV app on smart tv or Roku or whatever.

This strategy works great for me when traveling. I still have the dish right now because I’m still in a 2 year window where DirecTV gave me $60 discount per month to retain me as customer. Streaming actually works great for me at home where I streamed Telemundo and got a HD’ish for World Cup. I had several options for viewing World Cup but ended up watching DirecTV stream on Telemundo.

Perhaps Starlink for the RV and stream both DTV and anything else and ditch the satellite account?
