Question expressvpn the best one?

[tontrudel]

hi,

I have a netgear nighthawk R7800 with DD WRT from flashrouters. before I had linksys wrt1900acs with the express vpn firmware, everything was fine, perfect to watch netflix directly on my samsung TV, just to choose server on the expressvpn dashboard app and thats it.... So now with my netgear + DD wrt + FR privacy app + express vpn, everything is fine too... But express vpn is not the cheapest one so I tried cyberghost and nord vpn... both are supported by flashrouters APP, we just need to take a subcriptions from the vpn providers, put username and password etc and we are good to go. Both work fine to protect my devices but impossible to watch netflix via th TV like express vpn does, netflix detects the vpn. And I spoke with cyberghost and nord vpn and they told me that it was impossible in the moment, the only way is to watch netlfix from their apps, android or PC..... and I can use the pc + HDMI cable to watch on tv but not directly on my tv like express vpn does..

I dont know why only express vpn does that?? idea??
Cyberghost and Nord VPN are two big players with express vpn.....
thank you

For a very long time people would say to use nord to watch netflix and it may still work depending on which data center you choose.
Amazon and netflix are pretty aggressive trying to stop vpn. They will eventually find the ip used by the vpn providers and add them to their block list. So it may work for now but when they feel like it they will block more. Not sure, it can work for close to year and then all the sudden they block it.

In any case the best option is to configure the vpn on the router to bypass the vpn for the IP of the TV or if you can figure it out put in the list of netflix servers you are using and bypass for all devices that might use netflix.
Now if you are actually using the VPN to try to get netflix from some location you are not suppose to then I don't know what you can do.

Express vpn is much slower than nord for many people. It really depends on many things which is a better vpn. Almost any vpn that runs openvpn can run on a router. Mostly it is the free ones that that require software on the pc so they can force advertising to appear in your browser.
