VPN or proxy error netflix

I'm getting the same response but we do not have a VPN or a proxy. We tried hooking the Roku TV up to three different Internets, including one satellite, and we keep getting the same response from Netflix. But Netflix works fine on the Android phone app on the same networks (with and without my phone VPN turned on). I'm so frustrated. Is it Netflix?
