Guide: How to Enable Hulu on PS3 With a Workaround

[setTopbox]

As I understand it, the only problem with this config is that all of your ps3's traffic will go through the proxy, correct? I ask because I use a vpn to get to hulu so this would be a somewhat complicated setup

ie. ps3 ---- squid server / pptp client ----- US VPN server ---- hulu

the problem of course would be dog slow gaming.

If you use a vpn you will be able to reach it, but you won't be able to view unless you change your User Agent headers and I don't think vpn's would obfuscate that for you. As for all traffic going through proxy that is not the case, some of the ps3's traffic still travels beyond the proxied connection directly to the servers [tcp/udp on diff ports to sony servers - 80, 5223, 3658 etc]. If another computer on your network is vpn'ed and acts as a gateway for your ps3 then all your ps3's traffic will go through that computer and vpn [the non proxied stuff].
