Can someone help me with this? Right now I am with Virgin and have 5mbps and it's ok for Netflix..sometimes it lags or slows down but overall ok. Is 10mbps with Fizz good for Netflix? Amazon Prime? Or should I take the 15? Thanks!

Hi Christine
If you do not care about 4K video the 10 mbps is enough, however, if you are doing some videoconferencing I will take the 15mbps, for the upload at 10 mbps. The 10 Mbps has a 1.5 mbps upload, which is enough, but border line on my opinion
For the 4K you need to take the 30 mbps
Please take a look of this guide

If you need a referral code to get 25$ credit at your 2nd payment , there is a list here:

You can choose mine
To be transparent, both parties will receive the bonus credit once you have paid your second bill.

Christine,
If you dont have a 4k TV, it's ok.
For more flexibility and for 5$ more per month, i would suggest you the Fizz plan of 15 MBS/10 for all youd needs (actual and future).13 -
Hi Christine,
As everyone said, you should go for at least 15Mbps. You will have enough for Netflix and do other thing.

For HD quality 10 is ok.11

15 mbps or 30 mbps is stable for Netflix.13

For standard Netflix it should be okay. However, for video conferencing especially with more people, it could become a problem. Also if many devices are connected, it can further slow the connection so keep this in mind too.12

I can confirm it is watchable and no lag for low resolution (automatically detected).7

Try 10m first, yes it is usable. If not, switch to 15m next month. Click"change plan".2

As said by many, 10mbps is really not the ideal plan to fully enjoy Netflix. Beside the 4K that need a minimum of 15M steady speed you should also consider how many devices in your home will possibly using the internet at the same time. For 2021, I suggest a 30M plan as minimum if the main usage is for multimedia and streaming services....Netflix, Youtube, Spotify....0
