Hello Sailors,

So sadly my family still insists on using Netflix(for now), and with their recent restrictions you can only have one active TV at the time, unless the TVs are in the same home. So this had me question, what happens if all TVs are put on the same tailnet(or same subnet for that sake), would that be able to “trick” the netflix system? Has anyone tried this? Or do we already know that it wouldnt work?

(I am working on setting up the full arr stack)

    Linus has a full walkthrough video on how to set this up. I followed it and it appears to be working. I run it on my always on PC and set my address as the home for Netflix. Others have android TVs and have been using the app to check in and continue watching “while traveling”. No issues so far. If they stay connected the bandwidth will go through your network, so keep that in mind

            One time I had to order a 50 cent component for a ceiling fan from aliExpress, because it was nowhere else to be found. I paid with a year long bombardment of spam mails.

        Why, if I may ask? I don’t know much about Linus apart from the fact that I saw some of his videos
