How to Use a VPN to Access Different Netflix Accounts
If you have more than one Netflix account, you know that the world of streaming is great because you can watch what you want, when you want. The issue is that if you want to watch a specific show on one of your accounts, you usually need to watch it on the same device as the account you’re using. That means you either need to be online or logged into the app on the same device. Even if you’re on a mobile device, you usually can’t access content that’s restricted to other people’s accounts unless you’re on the same network.
Ideally, you want to be able to access all of your streaming accounts from any device or network, so you can travel with confidence that you’re able to access any content whenever you want. That’s where a virtual private network (VPN) comes in.
A VPN allows you to create separate, secured tunnels between your devices so that you can access content from anywhere. With a VPN, you can authenticate your identity, determine your location, and keep your personal data secure. You can also use a VPN to unblock websites that you may have been restricted from accessing, since many service providers now offer a free trial or offer generous no-strings-attached monthly offers.
Here, we’ll discuss how to use a VPN to access different Netflix accounts so you can switch back and forth between them whenever you want. We’ll cover the basic technical aspects of setting up a VPN and accessing its various features so you can get the most out of it. Afterwards, we’ll discuss how to use a VPN to access different Netflix accounts on the same device and the benefits of doing so.
Choose A VPN That Offers Multiple Protocols
In order to provide you with the best experience possible, many VPN services offer more than one protocol. A protocol is a set of rules that determine how data can be transferred over a network. The most popular protocols are IPV4 and IPV6, which are the standard protocols for the Internet. However, it’s also possible to use protocols such as L2TP or SSTP to create a VPN connection.
If you’re not familiar with these protocols, here’s a quick tutorial on creating a VPN connection using the software-based PIA VPN.
Set Up An Account With PIA
When setting up your account with PIA, make sure you provide a secure and unique email address. Doing this will help ensure you get all the benefits of using a VPN.
After you’ve set up your account with PIA, you can follow the prompts to connect your various devices to the VPN. Once the connection has been made, you can click on the link in the confirmation email to get started using the service.
Choose A Username And Password For Your Accounts
Users with more than one Netflix account know that the world of online streaming is great because you can watch what you want, when you want. The downside is that if you want to watch a specific show on one of your accounts, you usually need to watch it on the same device as the account you’re using. That means you either need to be online or logged into the app on the same device. Even if you’re on a mobile device, you usually can’t access content that’s restricted to other people’s accounts unless you’re on the same network.

How To Use A VPN To Access Different Netflix Accounts
The first thing you’ll need to do is set up a VPN on your device. We’ll discuss the various types of devices you can use and how to set them up correctly in the next section. Once you’ve done that, you can proceed to the next step.
The next step is to choose a username and password for your VPN. Remember, these are unique to each account. Choose something that’s easy to remember but difficult to guess, and use a mix of numbers, letters, and symbols. After you’ve set this up, login to your account and click on the link in the confirmation email to continue using the service.
VPN On Your Mobile Device
If you’re using mobile devices such as iPhones or Androids, you’ll need to set up your device to communicate with a VPN server. There are several steps to doing this, so we’ll discuss them here.
The first step is to download and install the VPN app on your mobile device. If you own a Mac, you can download the PIA app from here. If you own an Android device, you can download the OpenVPN app from here. You can also use the Safari browser on your Mac to connect to a VPN server and access content that’s restricted in your country.
On Windows Mobile Androids
If you have Windows Mobile or Android devices, you can use the Connect app to connect to a VPN server and access content that’s restricted in your country. You’ll first need to download and install the Connect app on your device. Next, you’ll need to open the app and enter your username and password. After this, you can follow the prompts to connect to the VPN server.
On both Windows Mobile and Android devices, you’ll notice a VPN icon on the system tray. This icon offers you a quick and easy connection to the VPN server if you click on it. You’ll also see an extra menu item labeled OpenVPN Connect when you click on the VPN icon. This will give you the option to connect to a specific OpenVPN server and not the default server that’s offered to you by your provider. You can connect to the default server if you’d like, but you’ll need to make sure your VPN provider hasn’t blocked this option in your country.
Set Up An Apple Watch To Access Your VPN
With the Apple Watch, you can easily connect to Wi-Fi networks and other Apple devices on your local network. If you have one of these devices, you can use it to access your VPN and stream content to your Apple Watch. To do this, follow these steps:
1. On your Apple Watch, open the Settings app.
2. Tap on the VPN tile.
3. You’ll see a list of your attached devices. You can tap on the Apple Watch to bring up a sidebar with your options.
4. You can tap on the Configure Watch button at the bottom of the screen to connect to your VPN. Once you’ve done this, you can use the Apple Watch to browse the web, stream content, or use apps that are already installed on your device.
How To Use A VPN To Access Different Netflix Accounts On Your Same Device
If you have a device that’s connected to the Internet and you have more than one Netflix account, you can use a VPN to simultaneously log into your accounts from different devices. To do this, you’ll need to set up a new VPN configuration for each account. These configurations are easy to set up and only need to include your IP address and port. You’ll also need to download and install the VPN app on each device. After this, you’ll need to login to each account and follow the prompts to connect to the VPN server.
At this point, you have two options:
- You can disconnect one device and continue using the VPN on another.
- Or, you can connect both devices and use the VPN to access content on both simultaneously.
