Hi all. I have two rokus and use Unblock US with the router manually set to their DNS server. US Netflix on one roku has detected I'm using a proxy server. stangely the pc and other roku are still fine. any thoughts on how to get around this on the one device that isn't playing nicely? cheers Theo

It could be that one device has a newer version of the app, one with the checks in place?

I have 2 roku's too and similar issues - the older one has been rock solid no issues even with the latest round of blocking by Netflix however the new one brought a few months ago is a bit hit and miss sometimes it will work then sometimes 'Netflix encountered a problem' although never had the proxy message.

Could be the software version in the roku I'll need to check which versions they are running
