Just curious, why do you need a VPN to watch the streams posted on Reddit?

Dont hold your breath for Dish to compromise and get this resolved. Dish and HBO has been in a deadlock negotiation for over a year where dish subscribers who pay for HBO, havent had it in at all the last year. Dish is on that BS and have been losing customers at a crazy rate because of it. If they negotiate the same way with Fox, they'll be out of business soon.

You might just wanna go with a different provider.

I heard HBO is owned by AT&T so direct tv is basically stopping their competition from getting HBO.

They post links to different websites that have free streams so most internet providers consider it an illegal stream and will shut your internet off

VPN hides your IP address and puts up a fake one so your provider can’t track what you’re doing and atleast in my area helps with preventing throttling so my speed usually stays pretty consistent

This is how I have to watch. I have Directv Now, and my FoxSports channel in my lineup is FoxSports Southwest for some reason. But, when I log into my FoxSports app, I can watch FoxSports New Orleans.
