  2. Yes, I realize this... on DIRECTV Broadband Shuts Down · · Score: 2

    But so many posts above were looking for other alternatives, as thier ISP is shutting down... Hence, the warning to avoid Directway as an *alternate* ISP, as they are NOT a good choice in my opinion, and from my experience...
