Gaining Access to Netflix - Don’t Air in your Country Using VPN

Netflix has as many versions as countries it exists in. It is a matter of money and exclusive rights in each. Every time you open the Netflix app, it reads your IP address and sends you to the home screen of your country. Most people with a little knowledge of IP addresses know you can fake an IP with a VPN. This will allow you to change your current IP address and access content that is exclusive to a different country. For example, if you live in the UK and want to watch a series that’s only showing in the USA, you could fake your IP with a VPN. This means Netflix believes you´re in the USA and takes you to that home screen. Follow these simple steps to get the Netflix you really want.

1) Open up the VPN Menu
Go to the Windows search bar and type “VPN” . It will give you the option to “Set up” a Virtual Private Network (VPN) Connection”. Click on it and go straight to the menu.

2) Add a VPN Connection
Click on the “+ Add a VPN connection” button. This will take you to a configuration menu for the VPN you want to establish.

3) Select a VPN Provider
Select “Windows (Built-in)” . You will find this option on the text box right below the VPN provider.


4) Enter the VPN info
Enter the info given when registering your VPN. The information you should have handy is the server, connection name and security protocols.
