I split my time between Maryland, USA and Coahuila, Mexico. My Stadia account works fine in Maryland but falls flat on its face in Mexico. I am most disappointed by this. I mean, I am buying games and paying for a Pro subscription. Why should I be getting such a hard time for being an international traveler?
Hi @ColbySalamanca,
The reason why stadia works for you in the US but not Mexico is because Mexico is not a country stadia is available in currently

You can leave feedback in the app or the store asking for stadia to be released in Mexico
Hi @ColbySalamanca,
From what I know, Stadia uses some form of geo detection to detect what country you are trying to play in at that moment based on your ip address.
I have heard some people can get a vpn to work to be able to play in unsupported countries. (Note: may introduce more lag and vpn play isn't officially supported)
Here is the FAQ link incase you would like to take a look at it.

Thanks for the fast response. I’m still confused since my account is a USA account and it’s all done over the internet. What difference should it make where I login from? I am using fiber optic for my internet in Mexico and my speeds are excellent.
