Agreed. VPNs slow you down and are really designed for people who REALLY want to go incognito on the internet, not for people who want to watch Eastenders.

Yes, Netflix often does not work with a DNS. And maybe it works with a VPN, but now that Netflix is available in Spain legally why would you need a VPN. OK some recent series are not available yet but that isn't a big deal unless you insist on trying to access the UK and US sites.

Hi,
For the Record........

"Simply change the DNS of your device to connect with a SmartDNS server located ... SmartDNS is not a tool for privacy or anonymity as it does not change your IP"

You can check this out yourself...........have a look at your Public IP before and after connecting to a DNS server.............. :idea:

Some light reading on DNS...............

Sid has the right handle on VPN's...............
All my best learning experiences start with a problem I need to solve.

Don't think anyone said a smart DNS "changes" your IP. I certainly didn't. I said it "obscures" it and makes you appear to be in a different part of the world , which indeed is exactly what it does when used to unblock content from streaming sites that the relevant Smart DNS service supports. All your normal local internet browsing remains unaffected.

See paragraph 2

As confirmed here ...some light reading

Also Smart DNS's are much faster as they don't slow your internet speeds like VPN'S do...therefore higher quality streams and far less buffering...if any, especially good if you are on a low download speed to begin with.
SmartDNS doesn't hide your IP address, it just changes the DNS.

The problem is that Netflix has a policy against it, so it is just a matter of time until they figure out which IP addresses these providers use. Of course SmartDNS can change their IP range accordingly, but this is a cat and mouse game.

Always has been, but historically the main players in the VPN-Smart DNS arena are most often one step ahead of the broadcasters. Thats why are great many people here use their service.

There are still some sites that allow watching and downloading movies, legally. Do Google and you'll find plenty of legal sources to download movies and series without VPN services.

If someone asks me I would definitely choose the sites where I can watch it online rather than downloading but why because first I have to wait for few minutes to download the movie then my laptop should have space for that movie. I always prefer watching it online. My friend Peter suggest me a site †**********here I can watch free movies online for free.
