You can watch Hulu in Canada now. However, you're going to have to pay a fee and if you're looking for a freebie then you can stop reading now. If you'd be willing to pay about five bucks a month to get access to Hulu in Canada then keep reading and I'll line out the steps for you.
So the reason you can't watch Hulu in Canada right now is that your IP address is Canadian. Sorry guy, access denied. But don't feel bad, it's not just Canada, it's the entire world. Hulu has restricted access to its television shows to American IP addresses meaning that if you're outside the USA, you can't watch Hulu.
How does a vpn work?
The nuts and bolts really aren't that interesting so I won't get into it. Basically, if you're mobile, you need a PPTP or L2TP/IPSec vpn. If you're on a laptop or desktop, you need SSL/OpenVPN. There are ways to cross them up, and there different protocols out there, but for most people, most of the time, and on most computers, this is the way to go. It doesn't matter if you're running iPad, iPhone, Android, Mac, Linux, or Windows, you can basically stick to these rule and won't go wrong. See, pretty easy to watch Hulu is Canada so far right?
How do you set one up?
Setting up the vpn to watch Hulu in Canada is easy too. After you pay for the vpn they'll either send you an email with a password and username or you'll be taken to the download page where you can download the vpn. This usually takes just a minute or two. I reinstalled my SSL/OpenVPN yesterday and it took not even two minutes to complete the download, and another minute or two to complete installation. 12vpn makes this very easy and other's may be a bit more involved but over the years I've used quite a few services and I've never met with something I couldn't tackle with a bit of instruction and I am a complete e-tard.
Will you have to deal with technical issues?
You may run into the problem that when you watch Hulu in Canada with you vpn you will still be denied access. Sometimes your browser can store cookies that give away your true IP address, instead of your virtual, American IP address, so clearing the Hulu cookies out of your cache is all you need to do. Bam! You're back online. When all is said and done, less than a minute of your time. If anything else goes wrong, most of these places are used to inexperienced users who just want to play and surf the net freely and aren't interested in reading novels about vpn's in order to get them to work. They'll tell you how to fix it or direct you to the proper resources.
