This error happens when a network issue stops your device from reaching Netflix.

To fix the problem:

You can test your device's connection by trying another app that connects to the internet. Some devices have a network test available in settings.

If other apps don't work or you get a network error, it usually means your device isn't connected.

Note:Because the steps to connect to the internet or troubleshoot a network issue are often unique for each device, Netflix Customer Service isn't able to assist with following the steps for your device.

To get the connection steps for your device:

  • Check the instructions or manual that came with your device.

  • Contact the device's manufacturer for help connecting your device to the internet.

If your device is connected and you still have issues, go to the next steps.

Note:Some devices, modems, and routers might take longer to reconnect to the Internet.

If the steps don't fix the problem, contact your internet service provider (ISP) for help fixing a network connection issue.

Your ISP can:

  • Check for an internet outage in your area.

  • Fix common router or modem issues and incorrect network settings.

  • Restart or reset your network's connection.

While talking with your ISP, let them know:

  • Whether the issue happens only on one device, or other devices on the same network.

  • Whether your device connects using Wi-Fi or directly using a cable.

Before you finish talking with your ISP:

  • Using a web browser, go to fast.com to test your internet speed and connection directly to Netflix.

  • Try playing Netflix again to make sure the problem is fixed.
