Currently using express vpn on my router through openvpn protocol. Netflix and amazon prime won’t load and have issues when using express.
How is nord with netflix and amazon prime? Will the load and work? Also, how fast is the speed of Nord? My connection is 450mbps with no vpn on.
My plan is 100 MB down, with Nord is 85 MB down according to Google speed test.
Netflix and Prime just worked fine with Nord Lynx connection.

NordVPN According to an independent article I saw online from a white hat group, stated that nord seemed to be one of just a couple vpns that check all the boxes as far as speed, security, and anonymity. Cheap is almost never better, and free is almost never good, at all, when it comes to vpn’s. 
In fact, a bad vpn, can be far far worse for your privacy then even no vpn at all and a solid private/open source dns.
Moving on:
Currently running nord with the app on windows 10 getting my full 450mbps down load speeds. (Let me finish) Couple cavats however, to get the proper IOT/Smart home/Streaming/Gaming stuff to work, I could only get the p2p servers working 100% of the time. No bother, easy enough to specify. and the p2p servers, from my perspective, just reassure me, that the normal servers, that don’t work for gaming and streaming, generally, are that much more secure.
But wait there is more!
Also running OpenVPN config on my ax11000 router, VPNfusion from Asus. Works great for network wide vpn, albeit a bit slower. For all devices that don’t need extreme speeds, they get about 175mbps download speeds. No DNS leaks, no IP leaks, everything is genuinely awesome, after about 2 hours of set-up.
Hope this helps.
Go careful with NordVPN and streaming. Not sure about prime but I have had issues with CCWGT and streaming Netflix from day 1. Been emailing NordVPN support daily for over a week and everything they have suggested to do as not worked at all.
I can load Netflix and I can search around netflix but when it comes to playing a show or film it buffers loads, sticks at 24% when buffering and when it does work quality comes and goes. Also I have had a message pop up occasionally saying ‘i seems I am using an unblocked…’ then it stops working until I change server, then the same all over again.
So far the only VPN I have managed to get to work flawlessly with CCWGT is Hotspotshield, I used the free version to test it and a trial and not a single issue. I have tried also, surfshark and express and neither want to work
The only issue I have with Hotspot shield is the security, they never show up in any top 10 VPNs
I saw hotspot shield in #1 speed vpn. But I don’t like that they don’t have a zero log policy. Which is an auto no for me.
I originally used nord but it was too slow. Switched to express few years back and it was good. But lately my parents keep complaining that netflix and amazon pop up a “using a proxy server” error.
With you on the zero log, plus based in USA so legally they have to hand over. If it’s only for netflix though I’m not breaking any law, worst that can happen is Netflix ban me lol so I may just go with Hotspot
I’ve tried express and ditto, slow, very slow and save as Nord really, sticks at 24%
