I had a stateside acct with Netflix and they recognized my email when I signed up for Mex netflix. The movies have the original audio and 3 choices of dubbing, Spanish, Portugese Spanish and English and the same choices for the sub titles. This is a help in learning the language, for me. Streaming is smooth as it buffers in advance of play. My connection speed varies from 2Mbps to 5 and even connected at 2, netflix is smooth playing. It is 99 pesos a month.

Now, our question is, how do we get the Netflix signal transmitted from our computer to the TV, which is in a room about 30' away.


One solution is get a tablet like iPad or Asus Transformer.

yes, wish everyone used speedtest.net

Mike - a few choices from apple. they have 2 direct to TV cables for digital or analog TV's. Check your TV to match video in and there is only one video out port on the iPad. Or you can use the iPad video out cable that has stereo RCA cables to have the ultimate set up so you can attach to ur TV and stereo system. I'm assuming you have iPad2, not sure what iPad 1 has to offer.

LaTijereta - "old laptop" could be your problem. If ur connection speed is 2Mbps or higher you should be getting smooth playing video IF you have a fast cpu to handle it ( and a decent video card) Borrow someones newer laptop to test?

Only got .72Mbps
I tried the free Netflix yesterday and I'm not anywhere near the speed required.
What a shame !
Edit:
So I did the speed test again and gained a fraction.
