I’ve been frustrated by the Netflix VPN/Proxy error messages, finally i found a way and there is a workaround. Ever since Netflix implemented its overseas VPN ban–preventing customers and other show catalogs from abroad VPN providers and users alike have been steeping ground for a solution.
When I connected to most VPNs, Netflix gives the following error, accompanied by error code m7111-1331-5059: such as below error message while playing any video
This trick will work on your Laptop, Desktops, Mobile phones, Tab's, SMART TV's or any additional devices that you are using to watch videos which I successfully tested and for that you don't need to install or Buy any VPN.
I heard there are some VPN's if you buy then you can change the region and watch Netflix videos of that region's but i never tested yet and not sure if its really works or not.
Anyway, I like Free stuff's and I don't wanna spend money and regret after 👻 If you are too free users then,
