i have home internet from Tmobile. is there a way to set my location on the modem.because of this i can only cast my hulu to tv, i cant use roku
How do you set your location so u can use hulu app on roku
Unfortunately, no. The modems location is based on the tower you are connected to as well as where that connection makes it to the server. T-Mobile internet is not compatible with Hulu Live TV in most markets because of this.

And this will solve my problem how?

I don't believe you're going to get Hulu Live to work with T-Mobile long-term, or it at least looks like a pain. Regular on-demand Hulu works fine. I was suggesting an alternative that I know does work with T-Mobile.
I am using TMobile internet with Roku and Hulu, live TV on both. So it is possible. When I changed locations of my tower I did have to reset with Hulu. I just can't print using internet now.
My experience with TMobile Home Internet has been beyond horrible. It's the same exact issues as many others have; Hulu not connecting with dynamic IP address of TMobile Internet Gateway. I've been on the phone with TMob at least 3 times a week, and yesterday they told me to come into a store to change my acct to a Business acct slash Sole Proprietor, making my Gateway a Static IP address. Did that, and tonight, no Hulu connection again PLUS, T Mob offered this change at no cost, just the same as before, $50 a month. Presto, my bill now says $100 a month and I still don't have the Hulu connection. Been on the phone, chats. transferred to multiple departments, it's a joke.
I understand it's hard to get anyone to care anymore, but they sure are fast to take my money. Going back to ATT fiber optic. Not that anyone there cares either, it's the world we live in, but at least Hulu will work.
“Going back to ATT fiber optic.”
That is the proper solution.
i wouldn't last 2 days on Tmobile 5G Internet with these kinds of issues. You should not have to be some kind of tech whiz/troubleshooter to use the service. At this point, after reading countless nightmare scenarios here, I don't even want to go through the hassle of trying their service or spending weeks on the phone with some kids reading off a script, or beating my head against the wall trying to get this fledgling, unreliable tech to work at my location. Broadband is more expensive but at least for us, it is reliable and basically trouble-free. And issues we may encounter on a rare basis are resolved with a single reboot. YMMV.
