Ruutu is an online catch-up and video-on-demand service of Nelonen Media's TV channels. The service also offers a premium subscription plan named Ruutu+. Ruutu is available on its website and via native apps for mobile phones, tablets, smart TVs, Chromecast, Android TVs and Apple TV.

Ruutu offers ad-free series and reality shows, documentaries, live sports, children’s programming and the library of movies. It also has a selection of imported shows from FOX, National Geographic, Paramount+, Viasat World, Yogaia, MTV and more.

Ruutu, just like many national services, is geo-blocked. What it actually means is that when you find yourself traveling or living outside Finland, even if you have an active Ruutu subscription, your IP will be detected as not coming from Finland and your access to the service content will be blocked. You need a tool that will make it possible for you to stream your favorite Suomi shows from anywhere in the world.

How to watch Ruutu outside Finland using Smart DNS from Getflix

Smart DNS is a solution that allows you to access geo-restricted channels supported by Getflix from around the world on numerous devices and operating systems. It does so by redirecting part of your Internet traffic through a special server which, without actually changing your original IP, allows you to access services which, otherwise, are unavailable to you due to geographical restrictions.

With unchanged IP and unaffected connection speed, you can still access your local websites as well at the same time.

In order to be able to watch Ruutu outside Finland, first you need to sign up with Getflix. You have 14 days for free to test how our service works. After registering your IP in our system (it’s quick and easy – no need for any special computer skills or additional expensive software or hardware), you have to configure your device for Smart DNS. The setup is available for many devices and operating systems.

You can also configure your home router to work with Smart DNS. This will allow all your home network devices to have access to Ruutu from outside Finland as well as hundreds of other geo-blocked services available only for certain locations.

Stream Ruutu outside Finland with Getflix Smart VPN

Smart VPN is another solution that can be used to access geo-located services like Ruutu. It is different than Smart DNS in that it changes your IP and encrypts your entire traffic taking it via a virtual tunnel to a dedicated server. As a result, not only can you access geo-blocked services but you also get an additional security layer.

With Smart VPN, no hacker, government agency or curious ISP will be able to peek into your online activities. Your web-browsing is safe and anonymous. You can even make connections over open, unprotected Wi-Fi networks widely available in public areas without worrying that your banking app password or important business email attachment will be compromised.
