Will it help at all?

    Isn't much help, I have a proxy node that's quite good depending on what country you want?

    Not looking to buy any new proxy/vps/vpn I have already some working ones was just looking if obfsproxy does more reliably unblock flix :P

    Netflix filters by IP/ASN, not by protocol. If your IP is blocked by them then no matter what VPN protocol you use it will continue to be blocked. :(

    That, but they also use some mechanism too.

    When I try to stream to my TV, over WiFi on residential connection, sometimes, it says it detected that I'm using a VPN and prevents me from doing so, or quits the ongoing stream.

    They probably use mixed methods.

    I've had similar experiences in the past but I wasn't sure if it was something I did or something on their end, glad to know I'm not the only one. :)

    I meant I have a node that's PPTP/L2PT, OVPN node on residential IP in US if you want US, or if you promise not abuse then I can let you have access to my private node in my house, both residential ips

    Once I get trouble with my own solution(s) I will contact you :)
    Thanks though!
