Netflix hates IPv6

Noel,

. I have been using HE for almost 10 years and they have been awesome. Verizon FIOS doesn't offer IPv6 or I would go native. However I am dual stacked on my Verizon phone, works fine with Netflix.

I see this blocking as being laziness on the part of Netflix.  When the account is setup a geo location tag can be setup that this is a US based IPv6 tunnel. 

I am in the US and all of my traffic is in the US. 

I like HE because I have noticed that my IPv6 traffic over HE is faster than my IPv4 over Verizon's network. And it is free.

See I just love HE.

Oh I also pay for the HD Netflix and it buffers and still looks like crap. I had better Netflix performance over HE than I do with Verizon. 

For a company that consumes so much of the Internet blocking us is just a slap in the face.

Thanks,

Robert

Do you use HE tunnel? or native ipv6?  netflix are blocking HE tunnelbroker services because of fun police copyright cops narky about geoblock avoidance, why should you pay the same cheap price as in US when they can make you pay 25-40% more because your from another country for exact same thing ;)

this has recently started which leads me to think this is your problem
