    Use code at checkout: VPNSD22

    You can have 5 devices activated at once.

    Looks like a great deal, very well reviewed VPN.


    If one was on their travels, would one be able to access U.S. Netflix with this VPN?

    Working for me on Android phone. First time using a VPN and no hassle at all. Pick a US server and voila

    Worked OK with US Netflix for me yesterday anyway.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Working grand here on an S8 and a shield, been using USA Netflix and BBC iPlayer.

    Haven't had a chance to try casting to Chromecast or smart tv yet, but first impressions are that it's great job.

    Could this be configured on an LG smart tv? Would like to use it on this for iPlayer

    Same. Is there a way to get a VPN working on a smart tv?

    I already have Virtual Shield that I got for 50 for the year.
    How is this so low for a lifetime?

    Working fine on iPhone, bit slow to load video at first but US Netflix working fine now.

    I tried to cast to the Chromecast before when using a VPN on iPlayer. Was working on laptap but wouldn't work on Chromecast, using the cast button in iPlayer, as it's not actually streaming from your laptop but connects directly. A workaround is to case the browser tab instead. Not as good, but works.

    Thanks, will take a look through those.

    I've purchased anyway, worth a punt at that price and just tested on my Android phone with iPlayer and works perfectly.

    I have it running on a Sony Android TV using their app from the Play Store. Don't think they have apps for other TV platforms.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,234 ✭✭✭✭gmisk


    Does this work directly on amazon fire tv? (i.e. not casting)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,874 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    Does this work with netflix on my pc? And if it does, do i just engage the vpn, and run netflix? Or do i need a USA or UK account?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45 wertyu12


    Is his app in the Samsung App store on TV? I've signed up to it here now and able to get the US Netflix no hassle at all. Cheers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,696 ✭✭✭dhaughton99


    Thanks op. Had a 3 year account which ran out last month. That cost €19. I didn’t use it much, just for testing networks. Great price.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 891 ✭✭✭rejkin


    Got it there, thanks OP. Installed it on my phone and was straight away able to access the american netflix. Handy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,874 ✭✭✭shootermacg


    Tried this on my phone, netflix detected a proxy and that was that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 891 ✭✭✭rejkin

    Worked straight away for me, best option is try a different server

    Which one are you lads using?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,365 ✭✭✭✭McMurphy

    It tells you on the server, Hulu/Netflix etc, so I always select one that has this listed.

    Hasn't let me down yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,037 ✭✭✭duffman3833


    Cheers OP, have it on my Oneplus 3T and so far so good. Will have to test when home :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 561 ✭✭✭Larsso30


    working on my Samsung 8 thanks lads


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 561 ✭✭✭Larsso30


    Just need to figure out if i can use it on my Samsung TV or PS4 now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,234 ✭✭✭✭gmisk


    Just a heads up there is a free 7 day trial of this.....might be an idea before jumping in :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 801 ✭✭✭lucast2007us


    How would I add this to my virgin superhub 3??

    As can't seem to connect to my lg smart TV any other way!

    You can't change DNS settings on vm hub 3.0

    Been looking into this all evening as I also have an LG smart TV and an older Virgin router. I think it will require getting another ddwrt capable router and bridging with the Virgin one.

    How can a "reseller" offer this? You would be losing money at that price along with the fact the software's own page charges from 10 dollars a month and 150 for lifetime

    Something seems a bit scammy about this

    Does anyone know can you change the dns settings on a Vodafone fibre broadband router?

    Just engage the California server and you’re good to go. A simple check to see if you’re actually on US flix - Search for the office US. If you find it, you’re in.

    Before I go buying another router, can anyone confirm am I right in what I say above?

    I have a Technicolor TC7200.u router/modem from Virgin for my broadband but from what I've read and looking at the config, I will need to buy another router and bridge it with the virgin one in order to successfully get the VPN working at the router level.

    Did you force stop the app and perhaps clear the cashe?

    They are running a relatively simple service, almost like an ISP in its own right, focusing on just allowing people to surf over different IP addresses for the few big reasons, Netflix, etc. but not much focus on what would cost a bit more, decent wider servers, better privacy protections and so on.

    I suspect they also know most people will drift after a year or so, freeing up the servers for the next marketing round.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,827 ✭✭✭podge018


    Just go it, keen to hear how people get on with Fire TV.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60 ✭✭tommy_irish23


    Working on a Xiaomi mibox, BBC player and Netflix us. Basically used Netflix stream server and the BBC player server.
    Not much success with Amy other server bar the Vietnam one.

    What part ? How far did you get ? What equipment are you using ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 759 ✭✭✭Moyglish


    Very tempted to get this. Was following the Getflix saga and seeing as I predominantly use Amazon Fire devices in my house, that was no use to me.

    Like some others on here, I too have the Virgin 3.0 hub and Fire devices, so looking forward to see how they get on with this.

    Would sign up for the trial first but I'm on holidays at the moment so can't test anything.

    I see this offer ends in 2 days, should I just take the plunge? A bit wary of purchasing anything given the issues people had on the other thread with Getflix and given the fact that Stack Social don't seem to do refunds.

    I am looking for exact same thing (DO NOT buy the Getflix offer - it is for browser only despite what the ad said!).
    On VM hub 3.0 and want amazon fire tv (netflix us and iplayer)...i am planning on getting trial tonight will test and report back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,846 ✭✭✭✭somesoldiers


    I jumped in last night with paid version, BBC Iplayer and US Netflix working on iphone anyway, didn't get a chance to test much else


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,824 ✭✭✭Doodah7


    Stack Social offer for VPN Unlimited comes around very often (if not pretty much permanently?)...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,616 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Got it on an impulse this morning and it works great on my phone. Watched a bit of US Netflix and worked great.
    The android app is also very slick and does a great job.

    If this works with my Chromecast tonight, it will have been a brilliant €15.03 well spent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,333 ✭✭✭gaz wac


    hey, I downloaded this to my Samsung phone. Logged into the VPN and then logged into my Netflix. The Office USA is there, but when I press play, it says "You seem to be using an unblocker or proxy. Please turn these off and try again"....any ideas?
    cheers
    wac

    edit: sorry...see the option to select Netflix now...thanks

    I couldn't get it to work via Chromecast, but in have a vm hub, so possibly not helping, but my Chromecast is plugged into the smart tv in the bedroom anyway so I prob can stream direct to the telly anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 891 ✭✭✭rejkin


    For some reason netflix on my android box still goes to the Irish one even thought the VPN for the American server is set properly and connected. Checked on Chrome on it and it is locating me in America. Same server works on my phone with netflix but not on this,weird!

    Anyone have any idea how to fix this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 406 ✭✭damemcd


    Has the code expired ?tried it just there and it didnt take it
