Type the command – ping primevideo.com and hit Enter.

4] Disable any proxy servers and VPN

A lot of content on Amazon PrimeVideo is location-specific. People try accessing the content in regions other than permitted using VPNs and Proxies. Amazon PrimeVideo doesn’t allow it. Thus, if you wish to access content on the service, you will have to disable VPNs and proxies on your system. For disabling VPN, please contact the VPN provider. For disabling proxies on your system, the procedure is as follows:

Click on the Start button and go to Settings>>Network and Internet>>Proxy.

Under Manual proxy setup, disable the option associated with Use a proxy server.

Restart your system and try accessing Amazon PrimeVideo.

5] Update your web browser

Any website checks for security certificates of a browser before you could access it. In case a web browser is obsolete, the Amazon PrimeVideo website would show the error in the discussion. Thus, it is advisable to update your web browsers from time to time.

We hope this helps you.
