Transparent Netflix only region unblock with Asuswrt Merlin

Ad-free time!, UnoTelly etc. services provide a nice way to unblock regions for Netflix and others using their custom DNS servers.

But I don't want to direct all my DNS traffic to them and I'm too lazy to manually configure all my devices (phones, tablets, media center boxes etc.). So here's how to transparently unblock Netflix for all your devices using the [Asuswrt Merlin][merlin] firmware. It's a custom router firmware which can be used on the Asus RT-N66U router for example.

Prerequisites

Enable JFFS partition and SSH login from http://<ROUTER-IP>/Advanced_System_Content.asp

Install `osxfuse` (3.x.x) from https://github.com/osxfuse/osxfuse/releases.

Install Homebrew:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Update Homebrew formulae:

brew update

Create Root CA (Done once)

Create Root Key

Attention: this is the key used to sign the certificate requests, anyone holding this can sign certificates on your behalf. So keep it in a safe place!

openssl genrsa -des3 -out rootCA.key 4096
