i got us ip from cablevision (no vpn/smart dns in use) and ddwrt(Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (03/23/15) kongac) on netgear r7000 no modification no changes after first installation. netflix worked correctly for years. but recently i go msg from netflix that am using proxy. been reading on forum that i have to allowed google dns to pass through but dont know how to do this. need some help to get netflix back. here is the error msg.
Whoops, something went wrong...
Streaming Error
You seem to be using an unblocker or proxy. Please turn off any of these services and try again. For more help, visit netflix.com/proxy.
what about just setting your router and compputers to use your ISP's dns? which is to do nothing but leave everything on default settings (=dhcp). I also got that message either a week or 2 ago but i was on a vpn at the time.
just for test i flashed my router with stock netgear firmware no change still got same msg. (i dont think is ddwrt problem) so tomorrow its time to call netflix and cablevision to see what they have to say.
eibgrad if you want to post some instruction for temp fix please do
