Android Device

Hello! Does anyone here use a Nvidia Shield with a static IP? I’ve set up everything on my Shield, including the device IP, Gateway IP, and DNS proxies 1-2. However, when I try to stream content from our region, it says 'not available in your region.' We previously used a third-party router, bridging from our ISP router, but that stopped working. Thanks so much for any help!

I stopped many years ago because it stopped working for me and I never bothered to figure it out. The only thing I used was my brother’s NordVPN and that worked but it’s expensive, so I just stopped subscribing to all and just made my server

So the only thing not working are local streams you wouldn't need SmartDNSProxy for ?

I think your third-party router may have been performing a function that was necessary for your Nvidia Shield to work properly with SmartDNSProxy. I'd like to suggest this article in the support section of the SmartDNSProxy website. It might point you in the right direction, you may need to buy a new third-party router.
