Geomas 5 Posted ... You can create your own VPN server in the USA, Canada, UK, Netherlands, Germany, or Singapore via DigitalOcean's cloud server hosting. Tinfoil Security has a service that will generate the server for you and generate an OVPN file for you to download: https://www.tinfoilsecurity.com/vpn/new I tried this, and it works fine with TunnelBlick. However, my brand new personal VPN (in San Francisco, USA) is also blocked by Netflix. :-( 1 go558a83nk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post
User of AirVPN 47 Posted ... Netflix blocks most, if not all known VPS and Dedicated Server hosts. Your VPN simply being from Digital Ocean might have caused the detection from Netflix. Quote Share this post Link to post
zhang888 1066 Posted ... If you made your own DigitalOcean droplet just to bypass some well known services you will probablybe out of luck, and this is not surprising that Netflix lists one of the top 10 world's VPS providers as apotential proxy. For privacy reasons, it is also not recommended to run your own node, unless you know what you aredoing and what is the exact goal you are trying to accomplish.First of all, you lose the anonymity layer since you are pretty much the only single user on this dropletand anything from there can be logged to your DO account, no matter what you used for the paymentoption since this is another question by itself, but the concept is similar.Second, if you are after speed, you will never get guaranteed resources with such providers, meaningit will be a potentially better investment to spend these $7 on a VPN account with a good provider, whereyou get both anonymity, or at least pseudonymity, and a selection of 100+ servers with guaranteed b/w. 2 Kepler_452b and sckirklan reacted to this Quote Hide zhang888's signature Hide all signatures Occasional moderator, sometimes BOFH.
