Hey Dan, just an FYI we had a client indicate issues with previously working DirecTV service suddenly stop working last month because DirecTV was geolocating their customer to the wrong state. There was some errant whois information likely to blame for this, but the WHOIS information had been unchanged for years. Seems like DirecTV may have changed their geolocation provider or their granularity (locating to city or stateĀ  level rather than country/region).

Are there any DirecTV Now contacts on-list? We are having geolocation
trouble with a well established ip range.
