Netflix puts at our disposal, for a monthly fee, a large catalog of series and films to watch when and where we want. In each country, the platform offers different catalogs, with different languages, so that each user has a personalized experience depending on where they are. However, there are times when, when entering, we can find the catalog of another country. And even a message that tells us that, although it is in Spain, the platform is not available in our country. What can I do?
When we enter Netflix, in addition to the domain we use in the URL, the servers analyze our IP address to see where we are trying to enter from. In general, if we connect from a computer, mobile or television in Spain, the IP that we will use will be an IP registered in Spain, so we will be able to access the catalog of our country. However, there are times when this is not the case. And that can give us more than a headache.
Why does Netflix say I'm in another country?
Large Internet companies, such as Movistar, Vodafone or Orange, usually provide us with Spanish IP addresses, properly registered in our country. In this way, every time we browse the Internet, the websites will know that we are accessing from Spain.
However, when we contract the Internet with Low Cost companies, for example with Digi, things change. As part of your savings is the assign customers Romanian IP addresses before Spanish IP addresses. For this reason, when we visit many websites, it tells us by default that we are entering from another country, such as Romania, instead of Spain. With the problems (and personalized advertising in Romanian) that entails.
In some pages, it is enough to change the region to be able to enter from our country. However, service websites, such as Netflix, will automatically detect that our country is Romania and show us the catalog of this country. But we will not be able to enter the Netflix of Spain.
What can I do?
The first thing we have to do is check if, in fact, our IP is registered in another country. To do this, we can simply access the What Is My IP website and we will check where we belong. We can also access Fast.com to see where the Netflix servers place us.
In the event that our IP belongs to another country, we will have to contact Netflix customer service to explain the problem and get a solution as soon as possible.
As a last resort, we can also connect to a VPN that has a server in Spain and access the Internet through it to enter Netflix Spain. In this way, as long as the VPN is not blacklisted by the company, we can access the entire Netflix Spain catalog in our country. Of course, if we want to see it without cuts and in 4K, the VPN must be fast and stable, otherwise we will have problems.
