I do not find myself needing to use VPN as well. But previously used surfshark bought from shopee seller just so that I can register for something reserved for U.S customers. I think you should not worry much. Just use your Netflix as usual unless the account is bought from somewhere unofficial.

If that's the case I am out of idea lol. Maybe it only happen to specific IP range, or maybe TM routing screwed up during the time you want to watch.

I have no idea then why it is so, in your case. Everything checks out, unless there are something in your network that we are unaware of. What router are you using by the way?

Can you watch the show after restart the router? How long does it works until you have to restart the router again?

From TM? Did you try to set up your own router or another router to test? Could be a router specific issue.

Yea.. it appears after I restart the router (I wonder why it works lol), but after watching it for 1 or 2 episodes, it will come out with the error message

Edited: If i have to restart the router just to let my fam to watch that shows on Smart TV, it would be a hassle, because my mum and dad doesn't know anything about this thing, they will just ask me to come and help everytime it occurs. So I'm thinking what if I'm not home, who would help them? They noticed that it is quite troublesome to keep calling me for help just to solve this Netflix issue.

Yeap from TM, idk anything about the router thing, because this router has been with us about 3 or 4 years? Those TM guys came and set it up.

guys if anyone interested with the UPB hybrid version can request and extend your contract by 2 years.

i got the first gen at first then after i complain they give me another hybrid box... both unit at my house now lol...

UniFiTV can be watched using app, why bother renewing your contract for a piece of crap box?

1. becoz it is freeeeeee
2. becoz u can connect to a non smart tv to make it smarttttttt
3. becoz my plan is 800mbps at RM159 with ultimate so there is no way i m going to terminate thissssssss
4. becoz this hybrid support vlan tagging u will get better hd version of unifitvvvvvv


how crap is the box anyway? for me the only downside is non netflix certified... the rest of the feature is same as normal atv box with 32gb.

Maybe can try with another router, and see if that solves the issue.

You can get a tv box less than RM200 with twice the amount of RAM during sales season.

Do you know what is the penalty for terminating your 2 years contract should you decide to switch ISP? The remaining months contract will costs you thousands! Just for a RM200 box?

Not due to Netflix or your home hardware.

It's due to TM's bad management of IP addresses /range which resulted in Netflix servers not recognizing the IP addresses as Malaysia origin.

This same occurrence happened many months back before first with Cloudflare public DNS last time. TM using bogons or what we call illegal IP addresses which they did not announce properly with their ASN causing Cloudflare to resolve TM IP address as US or some other country instead of Malaysia.

When you reset your router, you changed IP address because you relogin The new IP address was then re-recognized as Malaysian based IP and it got you through.

Which box is that? Nvm la rm200 is also money wad. I got 1 mecool so this box will be used for my projector.

And why do u want to terminate ur internet anyway why not continue to use until contract is over?

Ofcoz i know the penalty involved but i just cant brain why ppl would like to terminate it and pay the balance outstanding contract.

If every month your internet breaks down or its international routing gets fakap you still want to keep it and continue paying for next 24 months? You must be the best consumer the capitalists and corrupted wants.

Why not set the router to restart everyday then around midnight to refresh the ip?

What? U seriously encountered monthly internet breakdown? I think that only happen to me during jaring time lol. Either that or ur area memang that suck. Lol

But then becoz of this reason r u really stupid enuf to terminate it and pay penalty or u will wait until contract finish only u terminate? That y i seriously cant brain why ppl would like to terminate during contract. Seriously no point doing so.

You are more than stupid enough to sign up for something which already lock you down with a trap for 24 months in advance. It's no different that signing up and agreeing to pay 24 months straight with yourself forfeiting to threaten your ISP to improve or mend things if you're dissatisfied with it.

This type of consumer most scam or corrupted companies would dream of.

I works both ways. Sometimes you are lucky that day you get a very nice IP range which is good at every route internationally. You want to release it to others so fast? Sure you don't want to keep it for as long as the router doesn't recycle it?

Why call other ppl stupid? Look in the mirror first.
