Key notes
Highly popular streaming services likeHulu, Netflix, or Amazon Prime require a very good Internet connection.
Internet speed can, however, fluctuate due to various reasons such as maintenance works or old equipment.
When this is the case, and you are trying to streamHuluTV shows or movies, you will usually get anerror. Sometimes it is displayed as Error code 3 and also associated with the more commonerrorslike 503 (service unavailable) or 504 (gateway timeout error).
How can I fix error codes 3, 503, and 504?
1. Check Internet connectivity
2. Perform a power cycle
A complete power cycle improves streaming conditions by restoring the functionality of all devices and network connections.
Therefore, switch off your devices (including modem and router). Wait a few minutes, then switch them back on and see if it helped.
3. Update or reinstall the Hulu app
We recommend this step just for reassurance since most probably the problem should be solved with the previous fixes. Yet, keeping yourHuluapp updated is essential to ensure a seamless performance.
As a last resort, uninstall the app and reinstall it on your media player.
