You can do a speed test to check your current Internet speed.
I believe that Internet speeds will vary depending on the load on
your ISP and the load on the server (Netflix in this case), so you
will probably want a faster connection than Netlix specifies. to
avoid spooling of your streaming video (My opinion).
HD Video Quality
Movies and TV shows that are available in high definition will play in 720p
or better with a fast enough Internet connection. To watch Netflix in HD,
ensure you have an HD plan, then set your video quality setting to High in
the Playback Settings for your account.
Netflix Bandwidth Usage
Higher quality video uses more bandwidth than lower quality video.
If your service provider applies a bandwidth or data cap to your Internet
service, you can Manage Bandwidth Usage by changing the video quality
settings to Low or Medium to consume less data.
