Watch RedeTV on Linux abroad
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.
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
- 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.
- Connect the VPN before opening the streaming app; many apps cache your region at launch.
- Generate one key per device (2 included) — sharing one QR across devices makes connections drop each other.

FAQ
Is RedeTV! blocked outside Brazil?
Regular programming often plays anywhere, but licensed live events are region-locked. A Brazilian IP removes the uncertainty entirely.
Does WireGuard run well 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.
Is my connection private?
WireGuard encrypts all traffic between your device and the Brazilian exit with modern cryptography (ChaCha20-Poly1305). Your local network and ISP see only encrypted packets.
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.
