Hulu in Sosua

Vibe_2020 · #1 11-05-2009, 10:10 AM

How are the Internet speeds in Sosua?

I'll be down next week and would like to watch some of my shows or download a movie or two.

Anyone have any success with this?

Are there any options for purchasing Internet cards while visiting?

Unless you find a proxy site that works, and I have not, It will not be possible to see any programs using HULU in the DR. DSL speeds would work OK, but those types of services are generally blocked outside the US.

I do not know of any temporary internet cards you can purchase.

I also suspect that many torrents are throttled.

I use SideReel to watch TV content online in the DR.

Go to this site AnchorFree
download the Hotspot software. It hides your IP address, so Hulu won't know that you are not in the USA. I use it in Canada to watch Hulu and it works great.

HotSpot doesn't work from the DR. That's what I had. It was Ok for a while, but then Hulu, the networks and other TV stations caught up with them.

Don't know if it works from DR but try this site which is very similar to Hulu. Fancast | Watch Full TV Shows and Movies | Free Online Streaming

hotspot isn't working in canada for hulu either. I tried just after this thread started, and it did work, now they know that you are using it, and won't let you in

I use a vpn to watch Hulu in the DR

It costs $20 per month and you can choose a U.S. IP address to access several television and music channels
