Hello People...

I need some help with using Netflix and orcon global mode... I want to make the most of it before September when sky rudely gets it taken away :(

How do I know if I am on the US Netflix? I have turned global mode on and off and don't know how to notice a difference?

I have a feeling I am only on the NZ Netflix as it doesn't seem to have a lot of content on it. I phoned orcon and they confirmed my global mode was turned on but wasn't very helpful.

I have tried this on my laptop but usually use Netflix on either my Xbox one or Apple TV.

I think I pay my Netflix subscription through my apple account as I registered on my apple TV. But might be wrong.

What should I do?

Thanks,

Taylor

when you type netflix.com into your browser, if your browsing from in NZ it will load the NZ netflix page (https://www.netflix.com/nz/ ), if you are browsing from the US it will load the US one (https://www.netflix.com/ )

Orcon (and flip and Slingshot) will retire Global Modem from 1st September. Might as well get Unotelly, Unblock-us or DNS4Me now instead.
