Hulu Live and IP address

I just got Verizon LTE home internet and I signed up for Hulu Live in order to cancel cable. I have had an issue with Hulu where it doesn't recognize I am home and won't allow me to live stream at all and/or gives me the wrong local channels and had to go through Hulu support to fix it. They said the reason is because Verizon uses a Dyanamic IP. Is there a fix for this? Or will I have to contact Hulu every time there's an issue? Because this may be a deal breaker. Very frustrating.

We are sorry to read that you are having this issue with your internet, we'll be glad to help out. In this case Hulu would need to update your account so that you are able to view the shows available in your area.

So everytime this happens I need to contact Hulu?

Great question. Based on my own personal experience, once they manually set the location, it does not change. I only reached out once, and it never changed. ~Peter

We are only allowed to change the home location 4 times. After that we get charged. What are doing about that??
