They don't have a SA server to route through so you can't.

I see BI have some new DNS servers up and running:

In their place we have spun up the following new ones which are available for you right now:

Australia - 45.32.245.234

Brazil -191.96.4.172

Japan - 45.32.23.109

Netherlands - 198.16.74.2

New York - 50.7.71.154

South Africa - 154.127.59.183

Netflix has recently upped the ante yet again, by blocking IP ranges from Hotels, small data centers and anything else they can find that isn't explicitly a home user IP address.

So as clever as we try to be, I would be hard pressed to guarantee anything regarding Netflix going forward. In the last few months we have seen them block ISPs, Backbone providers, DataCenters, AWS, MS, Google, and thousands of normal hosting providers. Several other "smart dns" providers have recently thrown in the towel as they can't keep working servers up for more than a few hours in some cases.

It looks like the only way you can access US Netflix at this point is with a VPN with a static IP address which they charge a premium for, $9 is one of the cheap ones I saw, and there's no guarantee how long it will last anyway.

How is Netflix performance looking? I'm only getting up to 2mb throughput at the moment.
