Work around netflix proxy block

No VPN here. Aussie user and Aussie NetFlix. Was working an hour ago. Now one laptop shows the proxy error and my desktop shows the M7304 error. Netflix support chat seems frozen too. No response from it either.

I haven’t tried to access to other countries’ Netflix. I am paying for my service in my country and all of a sudden I get this error message. This is driving me mad because I’m at work and I have a lot of free time in my hands to watch something and now I just can’t.. Netflix needs to fix this.

I have northvpn and it doesn’t work and the only reason why I bought this product today was to take advantage of view American content but I get that poxy error….ERRR and it would seem you have the ability to choose which American server to use but noooo….I don’t have the option of picking, it automatically connects to whatever server is available???

If, however, you’re getting proxy errors with your current VPN when trying to access Netflix locations that are a bit rarer — often because you speak more languages than just English, or are trying to learn a new language, or simply even because you have a yen for the cinema of a particular country — ExpressVPN is again your best allround bet.

This anecdote just goes to show that even the best VPN isn’t perfect, meaning you always spend a few annoying minutes cycling through servers to find one that works.

Note, though, that a few VPNs make this process easier than others. We’ve already mentioned .

This screen is what you get when Netflix has detected you’re using a : if Netflix detects a VPN, you’re getting blocked.

Playing around with the software a little, got us into the Netflix of the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, Thailand, South Korea, Japan, Australia and Mexico.

Not that any of the providers can consistently beat the ban and even they not always. Netflix’s detection software is just that efficient at sniffing out VPNs, meaning that in most cases you’ll find yourself needing to switch servers every once so often just to make sure you can keep watching your favorite, region-locked show.

Over the summer of 2017, the U.S. – Washington DC (1) server did a great job bringing exclusive American content to our Europe-based laptop, until one evening, in the middle of the conclusion of a episode, the screen went to black and we got the proxy error, asking to disengage the VPN.

Apart from your vpn advertise, I have a server for my websites. I connected by open vpn and now I can use my server as a vpn. But netflix notices my vpn usage. This is not about special IP address, it’s about proxy mask. Is the any solve?
