VPN service for Hulu
Posted by yepitskate@reddit | expats | View on Reddit | 42 comments
I use Nord VPN and I’m able to watch Max with American shows. I like certain things on Hulu but I haven’t been able to make it work from abroad.
Has anyone been able to get this one to work?

yeah i've had issues w nord too. started using ExplorerVPN and it works great every time.
Emotional_Chance7845@reddit
none of it works but bamboovpn worked for me
Jaded_Competition198@reddit
Huh how does it work? I get the same error message

Hulu's really picky with VPNs. They blocks most of them hard.
Nord work sometime but theiir IPs get burned fast because everyone uses them.
I switched to Bamboo VPN for streaming. works waaaay better with Hulu because their servers aren't as flagged. Haven't had blocking issues since.
Also make sure your account was created with US payment method. That matters more than people think.
Browser works better than the app too. Apps check GPS which can give you away.

Perfect! yeah Bamboo handles Hulu way better than the big names. Enjoy!

I am using Nord and it easily bypasses Hulu. i suggest you try its obfuscated servers only and use double vpn too. It slows down speed a little but not significantly. For mr, it bypasses the blocks.

yes and I use bamboo vpn for Hulu and Disney+

I also use nordvpn, works well on me

Ah, that’s a common issue! Hulu has strict geoblocking, and even though you can use NordVPN to access it from abroad, the catch is usually creating the account in the U.S. first. That’s why many users rely on temporary U.S. IP addresses during account creation to bypass restrictions.
If you’re looking for other reliable options to unblock Hulu, here’s a list of top VPNs that are known for their unblocking capabilities:

If you’ve used NordVPN or any of these other services for Hulu, what was your experience? Did you notice a difference in reliability or speed?

I use VPN-SuperUnlimited and get Hulu to work. You have to change VPNs every few weeks though when Hulu catches on
bloodychickentinola@reddit
Try NordVPN's Denver or Phoenix servers... those work consistently for me with Hulu. Use their specialty streaming servers, not regular ones. Game changer!

I went through this same headache when I moved abroad last year. After testing way too many VPNs (and wasting money on some duds), here's what actually works for Hulu:
sread2018@reddit
Proton VPN works but you'll need a US based credit card or PayPal account
PsychologicalFail968@reddit
Did not work for me today
Am3ricanTrooper@reddit
Didn't work for me today either
samurai_blackYT@reddit

I use Nord and Hulu works fine for me. Might want to try changing endpoints or contact Nord support, Hulu catches on to VPNs very quickly.
KylerMo@reddit
Does it show you the “local” guide when you connect to whatever city?
Seven_212@reddit
Same for me I never had any problem with nord & Hulu

I totally get your struggle with Hulu! While Nord VPN is popular, I recently found ZongaSurf and they've been amazing for streaming. Their service is super reliable and supports Hulu without any issues. Plus, their prices are unbeatable, starting at just $2 a month with a free trial to see if it works for you. If you're looking for a solid VPN option, I highly recommend giving ZongaSurf a shot!

Does NordVPN Work with Hulu - https://www.reddit.com/r/TheVpnEng/comments/1hu4ggg/does_nordvpn_work_with_hulu/

If you’re trying to access Hulu from abroad, a good VPN is crucial. I’ve been using NordVPN, and it’s been solid for me. This company has been the best at getting around geo-blocks without any hassle. Just pick a server in the US, and you should be able to stream without any problems.
One thing to remember is that not all VPNs are created equal; some might have slower speeds or less reliable connections. So, if you’re looking for something that just works, I’d recommend NordVPN.

That's interesting, cause Hulu with Nord used to work for me but the past 2 years it's been severely blocked. Having lots of issues with it. This is from South Africa.
Nord does work for me for other streaming services though. Except Starz which also gets issues.

NordVPN for Hulu did not work for me nor for a friend here in Germany. We both switched to a different VPN (ExpressVPN) and Hulu worked fine after that. The only streamer I haven't been able to use with a VPN is Prime...I cannot fool Amazon, it seems.
Cherrytree50@reddit
As of Dec 2024, LetsVPN works for US Amazon Prime, and also for Netflix, but not for Hulu or Disney+

Express VPN is not working for me! Ever in EU
