This seems to be an appropriate thread for those looking for a reliable smart DNS service for Netflix/Hulu and who are willing to pay a reasonable fee. I got tired and annoyed at having to reboot my router whenever my IP is not whitelisted by Tunlr's gatekeeper and switched to a paid service.

So far Getflix gets the job done and if you sign up before 31 December 2013 and like them on FB, you get the discounted rate of AUD$2.45 instead of AUD$2.95 (17% off). Currently, RM3.12 to AUD$1 so it's about RM7.64 monthly. Definitely cheaper than unotelly and unblock-us and I can attest to their excellent support.

By way of update, did come across another service which looks promising ie Ad-free Time!. Pricing is USD$1.99 per month (approx RM6.57 based on RM3.30 = USD$1) but happy with Getflix and so will leave the review of Ad-free Time! to users here.


***
Further update: Getflix is extremely reliable and most importantly fast and easy to use. They even implemented a bookmarklet feature where you can save the bookmarklet on your browser to auto update your IP address without having to key in your user name and password. The Facebook "Like Us" Discount offer has even been extended up to 31/3/2014 so it is a good time to get it.

Having said that, I am testing Ad-free Time now as a backup alternative DNS service provider as I just upgraded my Netflix subscription to support 4 instead of 2 simultaneous users at the same time - can now share my Netflix subscription with MIL living at another location and hence different IP address. So far, ease of use is still Getflix due to the killer time-saving bookmarklet feature but Ad-free Time seems to support more services at the moment.

Dear All,

It has come to my attention that TUNLR.NET is no longer available and the service is terminated. In order to continue to use NETFLIX/HULUPLUS, you will need to subscribe to a new DNS service.

I would recommend this www.getflix.com.au

It cost about AUD 2.45/mth, roughly RM7. Still cheaper than most other services which will cost USD5 or so.

For existing customers, ff you have problem configuring, please whatsapp me. If i find new free DNS services, i will let you guys know.

Thanks to Fairuz(i hope i got your name right!) for updating me.

Hey Matrix,

I found this supposedly free service called TunnelTo.us but never bothered to test. Test at your own risk! In the meantime, I am still very happy with Getflix and Ad-free time!!

I much prefer Getflix's IP activation interface (bookmarklet) and the website is very responsive and optimised for PC/iPhone/iPad etc. Ad-free time! on the other hand is slightly clunky (web interface and cookie system for IP activation), but the plus point there is that it supports more services currently including Crackle and has this special subtitle removal feature. And of course ad removal as its name suggests. Getflix will probably not support services already available in Australia eg Pandora.
