Hey guys, we're working on it. There has been a lot of questions coming in lately and we're trying to answer them all. The good news is that there are rumours that Channel 9 in Australia is doing some deals with Hulu. You may be able to watch Hulu in Australia in the near future. But for now, you still need to change your IP address.  If you're just joining us, the key to being able to watch Hului n Australia is to acquire an American IP address through a virtual private network.

The truth is this: There are quite a few 'rumour' articles hanging around about Channel 9 and Hulu hooking up. However, many of them were written last year and there seems to be no Hulu in Australia on the horizon.  The best it gets "exploring international deals" but that could mean anything.

And don't even think about using a proxy. They were blocked long ago by Hulu, and even Hotspot Shield, one of the most popular proxies out there can't access the site.  What you need is a virtual private network.

The fact still stands however that you definitely can watch Hulu in Australia!  Regardless of the possibilities of Channel 9 or whatever television company with Hulu to create an "Australian version" of Hulu, you can still watch the original, with a vpn!  There's ton's of resources here on what a vpn is and how it works, so we'll get down to the nuts and bolts of what you're looking for. What works is a VPN.

VPNs can be installed on just about anything that can connect to the internet. iPhone, iPad, Android and whatever operating system you're running on your laptop or desktop (Mac, Windows, Linux), there's a VPN for you. Heck, even TVs that connect to the internet like Blu Ray and Apple TV can make use of VPN services.  Still not enough? Yes, Xbox and PS3 can connect to a VPN and watch Hulu in Australia as well.  Installation is a no brainer, so we won't go into it. Most VPN services have cool color PDF files and live support to help you get set up. The most important thing right now is to get started. Here are our three favorite VPN services, and why we recommend them.

Here are some details about the VPN services we recommend.  All of the features VPN services can be used with a variety of devices, including iPhone, iPad, Android as well as various operating systems like Mac OS/X, Windows XP/Vista/7, and Linux

12VPN for CUSTOMER SERVICE

12VPN really does have a friendly team that's willing to help you with whatever you need. Some VPN services tend to answer your questions quickly and coldly – we've dealt with quite a few over the years and 12VPN stands out as one of the friendliest. Some other good things about 12VPN is that they tend to have VPNs for more types of devices than other services, so if you're using something that isn't quite as popular as iPhone or Windows XP (i.e. Symbian Devices), you could check these guys out and they can most likely get you set up.

Hide My Ass For Number of Servers and IP addresses

I started counting how many US locations Hide My Ass had and got bored. There are tons of locations in The US alone, which makes it perfect for getting a US IP address. Not only that, but along with US IP address, you get 26 other countries, including The UK, which is another popular IP location (ever heard of BBC iPlayer?).  Hide My Ass is VERY well priced (the cheapest of the three VPNs featured here. They've got free server switching, a forum, Live Support, and their VPN is super fast.  I thought for a long time about something negative to say about Hide My Ass.  Well, nothing comes to mind. Did I mention there's a 30 day money back guarantee?

StrongVPN for SPEED

Definitely the fastest VPN featured here.  They've also got the widest range of plans available. This can be confusing to new customers, but trust us, if you jump through all the hoops that StrongVPN throws at you (their site really is HUGE), you'll be very happy with your VPN service.  Speed matters when you want to watch Youtube, Hulu, or Netflix and absolutely hate waiting for video to buffer.

Installation of the VPN takes only a few minutes (including the download), and if there's any confusion, all of these sites have live support, color PDF instructions, or both.  You don't have to be a genius to get started.

These will work for most all devices and operating systems including Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone, iPad, iTouch, Android, Nokia (and other smart phones) – if you've got something else we'd suggest 12VPN as they've got the most VPN protocols available of any VPN company out there.
