Apple TV 4 can not stream Netflix

My Apple TV 4 takes a long long time or not stream at all from the Netflix App, I have tried everything, from resetting to reinstalling Netflix. It opens the interface, you can browse normally but when selecting a movie or a series it takes forever to stream.


All other apps like Prime or Apple TV + works normally.


The Apple TV 4 is connected to a Sony Android and on the Sony, the Netflix App has no problem streaming.


By the way, it is connected by Ethernet, not by WiFi.


Anyone? Thanks!!!

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 14

Ok ... changed DNSs settings on the router to google's: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, no luck ... I did try another router, no luck ... finally, added google's dns 8.8.8.8 to Apple TV: DNS manual settings -- and finally it's working.
