Speed is obviously also essential for Hulu, as you’ll need a fast connection to watch your favourite shows in HD without any stuttering or buffering, and things almost always run a bit slower through a VPN. The more servers a given VPN company has, the more likely they are to keep adding new servers and IP addresses to keep up with Hulu’s attempts to block them, meaning you’re more likely to successfully connect. You’ll want a reliable VPN with a large range of servers – in this case, specifically lots of servers based in the US, so don’t worry too much about how many other countries are covered.

It’s worth noting that these are all paid VPNs – there are some good free VPNs out there as well, but even the best free options tend to be less reliable, slower, and less secure when it comes to your private browsing data. If you’re not sure exactly what a VPN is or want to know how it works in more detail, check out our guide to how to use a VPN, and otherwise read on for our recommendations of great VPNs to use with Hulu.
