Missed this when you posted it, is it really that simple ?
If I understand correctly by just changing the DNS settings on the Wii I can view the US service on that console and the UK service on the Xbox with the same account details ? Primary DNS 208.122.023.022 Secondary DNS 208.122.023.023 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmBTH3wjgDU |

Yes it is, install the Netflix Channel/App and sign up then follow the this link and enter your email address to start your 7 day trial then manually enter this into your DNS settings (after the 7 day trial it cost about £3.20 a month to keep using the DNS server)
Primary DNS 208.122.023.022 Secondary DNS 208.122.023.023 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmBTH3wjgDU You don't need to pay £3.20 a month at all! Install Netflix, register your account. Go into your Wii's internet settings change your DNS to that above (I didn't need the extra 0 at the beginning of 23 and 22), and it'll work, simple as

Sorry, no; is this something i just need to do on the apple tv device?
Is there a preferred method, DNS number to use? I'm not sure if it can be done manually on the Apple TV, not tried it on there, but it works on the Wii and PS3. (no need to pay any unblock sites!) Primary DNS 208.122.23.022 Secondary DNS 208.122.23.023 |

Are those DNS settings just good for 7 days, then you need to subscribe to get new ones ?

Er for a week until they block you. Otherwise everyone would be doing it for free.
![]() I changed mine on the 15th (as evidenced by a post in this thread). As of today, it's working absolutely fine That's 10 days for me so far! I'll see how long I can keep it free for ![]() (and will notify when it stops being free!) |

i have set up an iTunes us account no problem and logged into this on my apple tv. Seems to be working as the iTunes store is now US on the apple tv.
However netflix is still looking like the UK version. I have restarted the apple tv, logged out and back in to netflix but with no joy? Do I need to create a new netlfix account now? Any guidance appreciated. Thanks, I'm trying to do this now, and I'm not being allowed to proceed without a billing address.... Anyone got any ideas? (I have selected "none" as the payment option...) |

Try using your Internet Channel browser and it goes direct to UnblockUs homepage asking for an email address as your using their DNS sever.

I didn't realise it was someone elses DNS. In that case I may subscribe then as I don't want to be using illegally (she says even though she's watching netflix from US etc in the UK........ )

(I have selected "none" as the payment option...) If you subscribe to the Uk Netflix and then change the DNS you should be able to loggin to the US Netflix on the same UK loggin. |

It's only £25 quid a year for Unblock US if you don't pay monthly.

Sounds like your subscribing direct to the US site so will ask for some info as they also do DVD rental. I saw someone else say they used the zipcode of 90210.
