Public networks:

For Wi-Fi in places like a café, hotel, or school, ask if video services like Netflix are blocked.

Private networks:

Check if your connection is slower than our recommended speeds and contact your internet service provider if you need help.

Connections like mobile hotspots, cellular, or satellite networks might be too slow to use Netflix.

If the date and time shown on your device are incorrect:

1. Go to the date and time setting on your device.

   Note:For help finding the date and time setting on your device, check the owner's manual or contact the manufacturer.

2. If your device has an Automatic option, turn it on or update the setting to the current date and time.

If the date and time on your device are correct, continue to the next steps.

• Install any updates for your security software.

• Temporarily turn off your security software and try Netflix again.

  • If the problem is fixed when your security software is disabled, the software may be out of date or unintentionally interfering with Netflix. Re-activate it, then contact the software manufacturer for help.

If you've changed the connection settings on your device, you'll need to change them back to default.

These settings could include:

• Custom modem settings.

• Virtual Private Network (VPN) or proxy service settings.

• Custom DNS settings.

If you need help changing these settings, contact the device manufacturer.

Once you've reset these settings, try Netflix again.

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.
