Wrong Channels

I have been having problems getting local live tv channels. I have xfinity internet only,  and use hulu live tv. I only receive new york channels rather than philadelphia channels which are local to me. I contacted hulu several times and they insist it is an xfinity issue.  They show my zip code as philadelphia region, not new york. If I cant get this resolved I will probably be forced to go to another provider.

hobieyak, did Hulu mention why they believed their broadcasts being for a different city is caused by us? If you watch Hulu Live over cellular data, does the right area's feeds show?

I am having the same issue as above. Hulu says it is due to Xfinity. When I watch Hulu over cellular, which is TMoble, the channels are correct. When I watch on my TV using Xfinity, they are wrong. Should be Indianapolis but are Terre Haute. I have tried all the Hulu suggestions for correcting this and they say to contact Xfinity.
