Watching NFL playoffs out of the country - remote.

Recommended Posts

Had to travel to Central America this week. I would really like to watch the games this weekend, especially the Raiders on Saturday. Remote area, no sports bars and the couple small bars have no TVs. The place I’m staying has Hulu….never really used it…anything there that may work? Any thoughts for streams or links appreciated.

How does this work? And scratch Hulu…looks like a Fire stick TV thing.

On your phone, iPad, or laptop, subscribe to a VPN service like Surf Shark.  You pay <$10/month. You can just do one month if you want and cancel.  Basically, you start the VPN and select what country you want to connect through. In this case, you'd connect to a US server. Then your internet traffic is routed through that server and it appears you are in that location. You can add the Hulu app on any device and then start watching as if you were in the US.

Internet through a VPN will be a bit slower since there's another server acting as a middle man but in general as long as you have 20MB speeds, you won't have issues streaming.
