Connecting to HBO Max

Thank you! I mainly wanted to make this clear for other users that aren't aware of this little knowledge. When I signed up I checked to see if I could get internet services from ATT besides the phone.  Even though it was clear I couldn't watch HBO Max or other streaming programs ATT signed me up for DirecTV as if everything was fine. I knew it wasn't and had to argue with my wife about it - her statement was true "Nowhere on the website or on the pamphlets does it state you need internet to watch these programs". A workaround is to get unlimited data for phones (set phone as a personal hotspot) from ATT and use this as your internet service. To bad ATT doesn't sell "Phone internet box" to give those in the country internet service (all other internet companies really (Edited per community guidelines)). If they had it I would have signed up a few years ago and not mess with the hotspot. Thank you again!
