Star+ 🇧🇷 Brazil WireGuard setup on Mac
Star+ no longer exists as a separate app in Brazil: it merged into Disney+ in mid-2024. Its sports (ESPN) and general entertainment catalog moved into Disney+ plans. The official WireGuard app is on the Mac App Store and lives in the menu bar. It imports .conf files directly and supports per-network on-demand rules.
What Star+ (agora Disney+) carries — and how the block works
What used to be Star+ — ESPN live sport, adult-oriented series and movies — now lives in Disney+ Brazil under the plan that includes ESPN.
You need a Brazilian Disney+ subscription tier with ESPN for the live sport. The Brazilian catalog and BR live channels require a Brazilian IP to stream.
Step by step on Mac
The official WireGuard app is on the Mac App Store and lives in the menu bar. It imports .conf files directly and supports per-network on-demand rules.
- Install "WireGuard" from the Mac App Store.
- Download the .conf file for your device from the tunells.online dashboard.
- In WireGuard: "Import tunnel(s) from file" and select the .conf.
- Click Activate — the menu bar icon fills in while connected.
The setup, start to finish
The flow with tunells.online is the same on every platform, and the free trial (24 hours, no card) exists precisely so you can validate it on your own network first.
- 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
- Searching for the old Star+ app? Skip it — install Disney+, subscribe to the Brazilian plan with ESPN, and connect with a Brazilian IP before opening live channels.
- Use on-demand rules to auto-activate the tunnel on your home Wi-Fi and skip it on networks where you do not need a Brazilian IP.
- Revoke old devices in the dashboard when you sell or replace hardware.
- For live sport, prefer ethernet or 5 GHz Wi-Fi — packet loss hurts streams more than ping does.
