uhh wtf

i updated the car last night and now netflix says this ?? wtf

Does that happen on the cars cellular or on wifi?

the cars cellular. im gonna try turning on my phones hot spot

now it’s working with my phones hot spot ..

I would try rebooting the infotainment system with the two scroll wheel reset, see if that fixes the proxy issue

tried that, still gives me this message

What firmware version did you install? Maybe you can try reinstalling the firmware, see if it's a weird bug that came up

how do i do that

Why does your screen look like a 1990s tv? Is this what older models look like?

lmao

It easy to do, though in Teslas documentation it says to attach a low voltage maintainer to the 12 or 16 volt battery to prevent a sudden power loss from interrupting the reinstall [Tesla Firmware Reinstall Documentation](https://service.tesla.com/docs/ModelS/ServiceManual/Palladium/en-us/GUID-2746EF24-5C9A-4913-A7A9-780BA8170459.html)

420 in the error code ofc 😂

Uh... At some point I had an issue with my M3 highland Didn't know I had to attach a voltage maintainer I just did the reinstall, I didn't have any issues

I've been on a (US) cell tower that geotagged my location to Malaysia. Broke a lot of sites in the same way. My first guess is it's the same type of cell network bug.

how would i fix that? i parked in the same spot, same location many times and ive never had this issue

My incident was a one off and not reproducible the next day. I also got an interesting DM pointing it out might have been a stingray from ICE or some other law enforcement nearby. Not sure if that's BS or not

Clear browser history and cache/cookies(service>clear browser data). A 2 wheel restart may be required to fix. This unfortunately will keep happening if you use it like 3/4 times a week for a couple hours a day. My issue was not specifically VPN related but still that should help.

At a guess, your phone is NOT ATT, which is what the car uses. It's probably either a misconfigured cell tower, or something like the police using a stingray (fake cell tower to spy on phones) that is misconfigured. You can test this by driving a few miles away (to a new tower's range) and trying again. If the tower is the problem then it isn't your car, and there is nothing you can do about it but move the car or complain to ATT (good luck). The update just randomly happened at the same time, and rebooting won't help.

It may just be that the cellular company bought some ip addresses that were previously registered to a company in Malaysia and the registry just hadn’t been updated yet

And ?

I also had some Netflix problems yesterday on my home TV relating to a shared account between my in-laws and your house. I think/wonder if Netflix may have upped their security/verification steps to cut down on multi-household/VPN use?

I always used 8675309. Users would leave voicemails with my boss that they were getting an error, read the error number out, then start singing.

Seems like Netflix got hip to the VPN game. Damn, that sucks.

Fix it by moving away to connect to a different tower.

Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

Are you watching Netflix thru your microwave oven ?

God I hate netflix and their incessant enshitification so much it’s unreal. I’m giving you money to play movies and TV, it’s none of your business what network configuration I’m using to do so. If I want to use a VPN, I’m going to use a VPN. If you think you can stop me, I’m cancelling my subscription and pirating your shit out of spite.

If I listen to podcasts through the built in apps (Apple Music, Amazon Music) then I often times get ads targeted to other countries. I get Irish ads a lot. If I listen to those same podcasts through my phone and bluetooth then I get normal ads targeted to my area. They must be using some type of VPN, but you would think they would at least keep it in the same country.

That is just the Netflix error screen showing an old TV

hahah now I feel very very dumb.

Why not say this is Netflix, ya gronk?

That's Netflix doing that 80’s TV thing.

That is literally the p**acy model right there. People are like “take my money!” And when companies say “no for some reason”, people go ok, then don't take my money.

Oddly enough, use a VPN.
