If you have an adequate internet connection it should work pretty much anywhere.

Depends where you are...I tried it in Kenya and it was blocked. VPN might get around that issue.

Negative Ghostrider, Netflix doesn't work outside the confines of the United States.

Now, if you can sort out an IP blocker and/or connect via your home network, then it would work. But that's beyond my pay grade.

I didn't think about that. If that is the case a VPN should be the work-around. Sorry op for not considering the constraints netflix put into their program.

Netflix, ABC Player, HBO Go all the same. No foreign IP addresses. Use a VPN back to the states.

Bingo. Gotta use a VPN. You can also use a proxy, but you're giving up a little more in the security realm than you would with a VPN and they tend to be slower and less reliable.
