Netflix Error 1012

You can test your device's connection to the internet by attempting to visit a webpage, such as netflix.com.

If Safari says it cannot open the page because your device is not connected to the internet, you may be experiencing a connectivity issue that will require troubleshooting your home network or your device's connection to the internet. See Apple's support site for more help.
