in the pull up menu you can set it to wherever you'd like

i think the auto connect feature just picks the best location?

no way to get around that Netflix block with PIA VPN eh?

SkinnyPupp 10-12-2016 10:01 AM

The only publicly available VPNs that might have a chance at working on Netflix must be so obscure that almost nobody is using them. As soon as they catch wind of one they ban it.

I'm running Windows with the latest version of Plex. I have PIA running through the PIA client. I looked at trying to setup static ip vpn routes in Windows but that doesnt seem to be working. If anyone can shed some light that would be excellent!

Skinny does the private VPN you're using work with Netflix? I've used a few at this point, and none of them have worked (paid for a month sub to a number of them).

Nope I don't know of any that work. If they are out there they'll be quite protected!

If you think Canadian netflix is bad, be glad you don't have the HK version (actually I'm not sure, they both might suck equally)

Anyone having problems accessing Facebook thru PIA, today?

EDIT: fixed by rebooting the router:)

FerrariEnzo 10-14-2016 01:47 PM

No issues.. i can access facebook

Obsideon 12-09-2016 02:27 PM

Tried to connect to PIA today but when it's connected I can't access the internet, it just says "No internet", when I disconnect it my net works fine.
Anyone know what the issue is and how to fix it? I tried connecting on auto and to US California, all won't let me go online.

SkinnyPupp 12-09-2016 04:01 PM

I would recommend contacting support, they are usually very fast and helpful

FerrariEnzo 01-19-2017 11:47 PM

So just curious, even though I do have membership, how do we know they dont keep logs of connection even if they claim to not keeping logs?

SkinnyPupp 01-20-2017 12:53 AM

How do you prove that something doesn't exist? LUL

FerrariEnzo 01-20-2017 01:30 PM

just curious thats all... is this a US comp? dont they have to laws to follow?

not sure how the laws apply to vpn company..

jeedee 02-10-2017 11:32 PM

just signed up for PIA and noticed my Internet connection is a bit slower :suspicious:

any advice/tips?

SkinnyPupp 02-11-2017 02:30 AM

Try a different server. For me Singapore is way faster than their HK server

iwantaskyline 02-11-2017 11:06 AM

Torrenting is really slow for me even with port forwarding. I have tried multiple servers...

wickedxj 02-26-2017 03:32 PM

Without thinking just logged onto Netflix on my PC, which I run PIA's desktop client on, and I'm on US netflix! Picking up on some shows I was watching a few weeks ago on holidays..

How long will this last? Connected to US west

Presto 02-26-2017 09:03 PM

Not working for me. Proxy/Unblocker detected. PIA probably got a new block of IPs. Expect it to be blocked, soon. Enjoy it while it lasts :)
