Hybrid VPN not working very well with Netflix.

Hello,

I just configured HybridVPN to use Surfshark, my plan was to use it for Netflix on my Samsung Q60T Smart Tv. I followed the documentation and managed to establish a successful connection to a Miami server but when playing a title I either get an error message (Cannot reproduce try again later) or the titles simply won't load (title card show as black boxes and connection is super slow) this is the config I am using:

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote us-mia.prod.surfshark.com 1194
resolv-retry infinite
remote-random
nobind
tun-mtu 1500
tun-mtu-extra 32
mssfix 1450
persist-key
persist-tun
ping 15
ping-restart 0
ping-timer-rem
reneg-sec 0

remote-cert-tls server

Is there anything I can do to improve the connection to Netflix? Now that Geo Filtering doesn't work for Destiny 2 (and probably never will again) I am really struggling to see the point of my router over other models ;/

It's possible Netflix have banned the VPN server, apply it to the PC and see whether you get the same thing. Also how did you add the device to the VPN Traffic panel?

It is working today but slowly. I added the device on the Hybrid VPN tab, then on the right side using the Add Device button. On PC it is working and way faster, I did test it on my laptop before. Would changing the state I am using (Miami to Seattle for example) be an option?
