lgsmarttvIf you want to unblock Netflix on your LG Smart TV, the first thing you have to understand is 110012614-2-lg_42la640s_dvb_s_3d_fhd_smart_led_lcd_tv_4x_3d_gothat Netflix uses your IP Address to locate you. If the IP Adress you got from your Internet Service Provider is associated with another country (there are lists on which IP address belongs to which country), Netflix blocks their videostream. This is called geoblocking.

Why do they do this? Because they only have the license to stream their movies and shows to specific coutries. Its similar to the region code on DVDs. To unblock other Netflix regions on the LG Smart TV, it is best to use a DNS service, such as Overplay,  SmartDNS Proxy or Unblock-Us.

We have the best ones listed for you – but there are various alternatives are available, research them and sign up for the one which best suits you. Under the following table with the best Smart DNS Providers youll find a detailed step by step guide on how to set up your LG Smart TV..
