Issues Resolving Netflix CDN

One of Netflix’s domains was incorrectly flagged by one of our DNS DoS protection tools which resulted in many customers not being able display images while using their Netflix apps.  I’ve disabled the tool pending further review to see if it can be reinstated without risking additional false positives like this.  If you’re still having trouble with images in Netflix, restarting your system (TV, Roku, etc.) or flushing your DNS cache should fix it.  We’re very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. – Kelsey
