How to get netflix working again

David said:
So after spending quite some time over the weekend on this issue I have discovered that the issue is mainly with IOS devices and the latest version on NETFLIX app, i think its 8.1.1, they seem to have hard coded some DNS servers (Google DNS I think) and so no matter what type of proxy trickery you try to use it wont work with version 8.1.1. I have confirmed this since I tried it on a IPAD with an older version of the NETFLIX app and it works just fine. So my advice DONT upgrade the NETFLIX app to the latest version on IOS devices. IF you do then you will be stuck with only the SA selection. Not sure if this is the same for Android devices, perhaps someone can confirm this?

Can confirm your theory to be wrong, updated Netflix to the latest version on my iPad, it is 8.1.1, and it works perfectly for me, literally just tested it a minute ago and House of Cards S04E01 started right up.

On their Facebook page they announced a workaround for IOS devices this evening. Also now a Option6 that works with my ATV3, but takes awhile to get going, but once it does it is fine.

Who? Unotelly?

I use Borderless Internet.
 
Can anyone post or PM the test servers? I can't find them on Uno's website, and my Roku's Netflix stopped working this evening :cry:

When you are logged to their site, it is the Dynamo button on the top right on a full web page, or you'll find the Dynamo option on the pull down menu on a mobile browser. There is now a 6th options which is working for me.

I suspect a lot of people are not blocking or routing incorrectly in their router setups. Newest version of the app also work for me.

If you ping 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 and get a response you're doing it wrong

I'm not blocking or routing anything...
 
Funny that becuase my ios devices have never stopped working.

Only my Playstation 3 has issues.

And this with a static route blackhole for Google DNS.

Try also blocking open dns & the others I mentioned in the other thread. That worked for me.

That works fine for Windows, Android and some iOS but not for ChromeCast or Roku
Any device with hardcoded DNS

Still working on my Roku, but I have static routing in place for 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

That's why I implore people to first test on a PC, if it works then and it doesn't work on whichever device you use you know you're doing it wrong.

The last I remember Android, Chromecast and Roku had the DNS hardcoded, any other device should work fine without a static route.

PC working on Borderless Internet but getting proxy error on iPad. Static routing seems to be set up correctly for Google DNS by using Network Ping Lite app on iPad so not sure what I'm doing wrong.

If you visit their site from the iPad does it tell you it's correctly setup?

What does it say on the iPad, "You seem to be using an unblocker or proxy"?

Yes, but it seems to have started working now.

Still getting "ui-122" error on ps3 and "please make sure that your device has network connectivity and Date and Time settings are accurate. (-3)" on android.

Edit: PS3 only giving issues with US server, others working fine
