I don’t really understand the problem yet

apt-get install cifs-utils?

Hide.me is not possible because this is not a private server but a company that offers VPN and is therefore also known to Netflix.

I have the problem with Amazon and it’s really complicated, my Swisscom TV-Box can’t do Amazon… my TV can do Amazon but since it’s queried in the GEO I can hardly see anything from the German store, for example.

But what is possible is the following, an additional router (can also be a Raspberry Pi) that is connected to the Swisscom router via network cable. Then you need your own server in the respective country, e.g. Germany. At hetzner.de there are cloud servers for 4 euros to test, that’s enough. On the Hetzner server you install a VPN server [https://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/IPSec-NAT](https:// wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/IPSec-NAT “https://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/IPSec-NAT”) that is also the instructions for the client, which means something on the Raspberry PI with Raspbian https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ can be installed.

The tunnel between Hetzner and the Raspberry PI is then set up as normal via the Swisscom network. If the network is up, NAT continues. Your Raspberry PI now needs to be converted into a router so that everything that arrives via WLAN, for example, goes out directly via the VPN tunnel.

Alternatively, OpenVPN should also work instead of IPsec. [https://www.kuketz-blog.de/pivpn-raspberry-pi-mit-openvpn-raspberry-pi-teil3/](https://www.kuketz-blog.de/pivpn-raspberry-pi-mit -openvpn-raspberry-pi-part3/ “https://www.kuketz-blog.de/pivpn-raspberry-pi-mit-openvpn-raspberry-pi-teil3/”)

Now you connect the TV display network via WLAN on the Raspberry Pi router and you can watch Amazon films in the German store using the TV Amazon Prime app. The cost is 60 CHF if you don’t have a Raspberry. + Monthly server costs from 4 euros + Amazon Prime membership approx. 70 euros / year. The practical thing is that you can now easily change the Netflik store via the Raspberry Pi if you have other servers abroad. You can get servers everywhere thanks to Amazon or ServerRack or smaller local providers.
