RedeTV WireGuard setup on Linux
RedeTV! is a Brazilian free-to-air network that streams its live feed and shows through its site and YouTube — lighter on geo-blocks than the big platforms, but live rights content still checks region. WireGuard is built into the Linux kernel (5.6+). You get the cleanest, fastest implementation of all platforms — via wg-quick, NetworkManager, or systemd-networkd.
What RedeTV carries — and how the block works
Live feed, entertainment shows, news, and occasional sports broadcasts with alternative Brazilian commentary.
Mostly free. When a broadcast carries licensed sports or events, the player enforces a Brazilian IP just like the bigger services.
Step by step on Linux
WireGuard is built into the Linux kernel (5.6+). You get the cleanest, fastest implementation of all platforms — via wg-quick, NetworkManager, or systemd-networkd.
- Install the tools: `sudo apt install wireguard` (Debian/Ubuntu) or the equivalent for your distro.
- Download the .conf from the tunells.online dashboard and save it as /etc/wireguard/br0.conf.
- Run `sudo wg-quick up br0` to connect (and `down` to disconnect).
- Optional: `sudo systemctl enable wg-quick@br0` to connect on boot.
Connecting in under a minute
No manual server configuration is involved — the dashboard generates everything, and the WireGuard app does the rest.
- Create your tunells.online account — no card needed to start.
- In the dashboard, add a device and open its QR code (or download the .conf on desktop).
- Scan it with the WireGuard app and activate the tunnel.
- Confirm the Brazilian IP (search "my IP") and open your streaming app.
Tips to avoid trouble on match day
- RedeTV! sports streams often run on YouTube — the same Brazilian-IP rule as Cazé TV applies there.
- Check the handshake anytime with `sudo wg show` — a recent "latest handshake" means the tunnel is healthy.
- Generate one key per device (2 included) — sharing one QR across devices makes connections drop each other.
- Revoke old devices in the dashboard when you sell or replace hardware.

What if it doesn't work for my platform?
That is what the free trial is for — validate with your actual platform and network before paying. If something misbehaves, support responds directly through the site.
Can I use it on more than one device?
Yes — the paid plan includes 2 devices, each with its own key and QR code, individually revocable from the dashboard.
