Netflix, Streaming Videos & DVDs

We've always subscribed to the least expensive no-advertising Netflix tier.

When we've had trouble it's been caused by our home internet connection or the streaming devices themselves. Often clearing all the caches and resetting a streaming device helps.

There are all sorts of settings you can fiddle with to match the picture quality to the actual , (not the advertised...) quality of your internet connection. Many internet connections cannot sustain Blu-Ray HD quality, let alone 4K. You can go to Netflix settings and stream everything in "standard" mode, which is where ours is set.

What kind of internet service do you have? Fiber, cable, dsl, 5G wireless, or something else?

I still haven't found a streaming device I'm enthusiastic about, or a "smart television" I'd connect directly to the internet.
