Follow the troubleshooting steps below to resolve the issue.
Test the Internet connection on your device
You can test your device's connection to the Internet by attempting to visit a webpage from your device, such as http://www.netflix.com/.
If Safari says, "Safari can not open the page because your iPad is not connected to the Internet," you may be experiencing a connectivity issue that will require troubleshooting your home network or your device's connection to the Internet. See Apple's support site for more help.
Once you're connected to the Internet, try Netflix again. If you're still not able to stream, continue troubleshooting below.
