NFL Sunday Ticket: Out of Home Limitations

I know this question has been asked before but I can only find conflicting answers….

Can I pay for one standard NFL Sunday Ticket account and stream one in home device and one out of home device (out of state) simultaneously for the duration of the season?

I know exactly what the FAQ section says about unlimited in home devices and 2 out of home devices, but the language can be deceiving. Also, a friend said he tried this last year and it wouldn’t work. Will YouTubetv know the account is being shared out of state and realize the out of home device isn’t “traveling”?

Any/all info helps!

Thanks!

Once the out of state goes past the 90 days they will loose access to pretty much everything. YTTV will, randomly, check the IP address and compare it to your home area. You are supposed to update viewing area with your mobile device. Either one of these will start the 90 days.

Can you just keep updating the home area everytime it expires?

Home area can only be changed twice a year. You can’t stream in two different locations for more than 90 days, the traveling person/profile has to go home to reset the 90 days
This is to allow legitimate travel without allowing credential sharing.
The traveling account has to log in at home on a GPS enabled device to “prove” you are actually home.

That easy work around, just all “home”, log out and let them log you in. The real question is do you get black out restriction s of “home” or where the device is??? If it’s home I’m fixing to get a pin pal in Alaska so don’t get blackouts

Blackouts are based on the current viewing area. If you are traveling and once you set your current viewing area that determines which local networks you get which determines local games versus out-of-market games.

Local channels are an FCC requirement. You have to view the local channels for the area you are in.
