Sounds like your VPN is not set up right.  When I view my Netflix list, signed in from the PIs, the list is woefully short.  I VPN to the US and my full list shows up.  The movie offering here in the PIs is extremely limited.  Netflix, using the VPN, should show you the full US list, if it is working correctly.

I'm using a VPN service (PureVPN) so there really isn't anything to configure.

It's based in Hong Kong and is one of the larger, more privacy-focused services (at least as far as their stated policy goes), has been around for a long time and is very stable, so I'm guessing that stability has allowed a 'cat' (Netflix) that doesn't like 'mice' (VPNs) to catch one. I do seem to recall that PureVPN has a connection for Netflix use, but I haven't tried it since I'm in the States and don't need it for Netflix.

I use the VPN because there are still some sites out there that don't use 'https' connections and for when I want a bit of privacy.

I've been looking into and considering rolling my own VPN server for use down the road when I'll really need it.

I just tinkered with my VPN configuration and I'm seeing everything in my Netflix and Vudu queues so all's good
