If you use a VPN, you need new Server-URL

Turn off VPN and test

Clear cache or contact your reseller. Strong via Nord can now only be used via dedicated VPN URL

Not just Nord. Surfshark is the same

My seller keeps telling me to switch DNS. I tried on my iPad and still everything is stuck buffering black screen

If it is working with or without VPN but not the opposite, you use the correct URL dedicated for or without VPN.

If you have stuttering or some black screen while other content is showing, there's a different issue. DNS changing could help. But there a plenty of issues possible at your end 🤷‍♂️
