Netflix super slow when connected to VPN. Any fixes?

I’m using Private Internet Access to watch US Netflix on my Amazon FireTV stick, and a few days ago Netflix became very slow and it has been that way since. Other streaming sites (Youtube, Gogoanime, other pirate streaming sites) work fine, but Netflix takes like 5 minutes to load a video and when it plays it’s in garbage quality and is constantly buffering. I’ve tried clearing the cache, restarting the device and router, etc. and I’m still running into the same issue. Anything else I can do to fix this issue?

Just curious if you’ve changed your server to one that says streaming optimized. I’ve never had a problem with Netflix/Prime/Hulu when using a streaming optimized server.

I would get a usb to ethernet adapter… that might help honestly

Could be Netflix realizing you are using a VPN?

I would HIGHLY recommend getting a usb to ethernet adapter from Amazon, not much $$ at all but may help quite a bit!!

Yes, I’m always on an optimized server.

If it was, I’d be getting an error code, which I’m not.
