    Hi Rep

    I'm with internode and get unmetered data when I use netflix currently. Will using your service turn netflix data into metered data for myself?

    • Store Rep[Deactivated] @ uFlix on 25/05/2015 - 21:27

      Hi budgetgaming,

      Yes, it will meter the data when using Netflix which is not Netflix Australia. To enable unmetered data again, you will need to select "Turn Off" from your uFlix panel. This will default back to Netflix Australia, but the data will be unmetered.

      Thanks.

      Hi quiteguy,

      When streaming from Netflix USA, Canada etc you are downloading from overseas servers. Australian Netflix serves its content locally. It should kick in to higher quality after a few minutes, but you will always have better quality via Australia.

      Thanks.

      • quiteguy on 25/05/2015 - 23:47

        Hi BargainBob999,

        This is unfortunately a limitation of your home connection. We do not intercept the stream, so when you a viewing from a foreign Netflix, it is downloading from overseas servers as opposed to Australian ones.

        What will be the rates after 12 months. Does the subscription renew automatically.

        • Store Rep[Deactivated] @ uFlix on 26/05/2015 - 09:36

          Hi Elppa8,

          The subscription does not renew automatically. The rates will be very, very slightly increased after 12 months as we will have a lot more infrastructure. However, the main costs will be for the VPN system we are setting up. The smartDNS service (which will be offered as a stand-alone service) will not go up by much. I can't give an exact number, but my guess would be $2.50 - $3.00 AUD per month if paying monthly. Yearly payments will be cheaper.
          Thanks.

      Hi webbiegareth,

      The future (full) VPN will be additional as it will cater to a different market. The VPN we are building is a high-end VPN, not a budget VPN. It will be an additional cost.

      However, for the small VPN (VPN for DNS) it will be included free with the smartDNS service. The purpose of this small VPN will be to allow streaming over 3G/4G and to bypass newer apps DNS hijacking.

      Thanks.

      • MrGareth on 26/05/2015 - 10:17

        I should have actually read through the thread more thoroughly, where you answered it already :)

        One question though, how will your full VPN service be different to getflix new VPN offering (which is included in their base package)? Is it basically the same sort of thing, just that yours will be more secure, and a lot faster?

        • Store Rep[Deactivated] @ uFlix on 26/05/2015 - 13:14

          Hi webbiegareth,

          I don't know what Getflix offers and how their VPN network is set up. I can not go in to a lot of detail about how ours will operate, but I can say it is set up to feel like the VPN is not even there. That is to say lightning fast (fast, fast, fast). Also the way you will be able to interact with the central hub is really cool too.

          We are also working on a small bit of hardware which will have crazy awesome features in it. But I really can't go into more detail.

          The best way I can explain it is that it will be a high-end VPN service.

          Thanks.

  • Rupture on 26/05/2015 - 10:49

    Is there any reason to set this up through the router, as opposed to just my playstation which is what we use for netflix? If I set it up through the router, will it impact general internet speed at all, or are the settings themselves only active whilst using netflix/bbc etc?

    • Store Rep[Deactivated] @ uFlix on 26/05/2015 - 10:55

      Hi Rupture,

      You can set it up at either router-level or device level. You will not see a speed hit as our DNS servers are in Australia.

      If you only use the Playstation, then I would suggest setting it up only on the Playstation.

  • rdx on 26/05/2015 - 14:48

    Hi again rep.

    I have 7-10mbps down (ADSL2+) at my house, so that means I usually get around 900KB/s to 1.2MB/s download which is enough for 1080p streaming. Netflix AU (without uflix enabled) works great after an initial couple of minutes of buffering, I can watch the rest without any buffering.

    However after enabling uflix > USA, netflix is EXTREMELY slow, I'm talking 20-50KB/s, which is obviously completely unacceptable.

    I have set the correct DNS settings on a device level (Windows PC, 4790k, 16GB RAM, GTX 970, 120gb SSD). This PC has also been hackintoshed and OSX also runs just as slow. Speed tests still run fine, just netflix US streaming is terrible.
    I don't want to set the DNS on a router level as that would affect everyone in the home.

    Can you offer any assistance?

    • Store Rep[Deactivated] @ uFlix on 26/05/2015 - 14:54

      Hi rdx,

      We do not intercept the traffic between the stream source and your connection. That is to say that the source of the stream (Netflix servers) comes directly to your computer/device. This is the maximum available speed to you. When you stream from Australian Netflix, the Netflix source is hosted in Australia, so the speed is fast. When you stream from USA Netflix, the source of the stream is in the USA (you will be downloading from a USA server). This will be slower.

      However, different ISP's face different problems. So, during peak time you will notice your connection is slower than that of off-peak. Unfortunately uFlix can't do anything about this, as it is a problem from your ISP back to the stream source.

      To prove it, try watching Netflix USA at say, 8:00pm. Then, on a weekend, try watching Netflix at around 2:00am. You will notice that your speed is much faster when watching at 2:00am. This is due to the large amount of users using the internet at peak-time.

      So, combining both, you have peak time usage + downloading from overseas.

      Having said that, 20kbps sounds absolutely crazy slow.

      If you like, please submit a support ticket and we can look into the issue further for you. But chances are (99.999% sure) this is a problem is from your ISP. But none the less, we will try and do what we can.

      Thanks.

      • rdx on 26/05/2015 - 15:19

        I am with Belong in Melbourne. They are a Telstra reseller. We literally cannot get any faster speeds at our place coz there is nothing except ADSL, no cable and certainly no NBN in the foreseeable future.

        I actually tried testing this morning but instead of working like it normally does, the browser said it could not connect!
        No matter what browser or operating system I used, none of them worked while uflix was active.

        I honestly don't know what to do, I didn't change ANYTHING since last night when it was working fine (albeit it extremely slow).
        Can I get a refund if we can't get this working?

      If I understand correctly, if you change the DNS on the router level, then switch the region on the website, your wii u will then show that regions Netflix rather than ours. If you do it at the computer/device level, then it will only affect that computer/device.

      • enidan on 28/05/2015 - 09:37

      hulu is down for the moment. We are deploying a new proxy server due to them identifying our USA exit IP.

      As far as Netflix goes -

      We do not intercept the traffic between the stream source and your connection. That is to say that the source of the stream (Netflix servers) comes directly to your computer/device. This is the maximum available speed to you. When you stream from Australian Netflix, the Netflix source is hosted in Australia, so the speed is fast. When you stream from USA Netflix, the source of the stream is in the USA (you will be downloading from a USA server). This will be slower.

      However, different ISP's face different problems. So, during peak time you will notice your connection is slower than that of off-peak. Unfortunately uFlix can't do anything about this, as it is a problem from your ISP back to the stream source.

      To prove it, try watching Netflix USA at say, 8:00pm. Then, on a weekend, try watching Netflix at around 2:00am. You will notice that your speed is much faster when watching at 2:00am. This is due to the large amount of users using the internet at peak-time.

      So, combining both, you have peak time usage + downloading from overseas.

      Thanks.

    When I subscribed yesterday afternoon (26/5) I forgot to use the code given. I was then charged $20 in stead of the $15. I have raised a support ticket and mentioned this deal to the UFLIX staff member. I'm thinking, that perhaps they are not aware of the deal.

    I mentioned on the support ticket about BBC iplayer and Hulu Plus and I still don't think they' know about the deal.

    Is there a way I can fix my error of not using the code on my subscription?

      Hi Meofcourse,

      We put this deal up. We are aware of it. If you raised a ticket, it will be answered shortly.

      Thanks.
