NBN Plan Mainly for Netflix (for My Elderly Parents)

DR-JEKL on 05/04/2019 - 12:54

hey guys

I'm looking to set my parents up with netflix, so they'll need a nbn plan.

Since they wont be using it for much else (grandkids may use wifi when they visit) can anyone suggest a good BFYB plan please?

Thanks! :)

Just be aware streaming Netflix has the potential to use massive amounts of data. Used upto 100gb a day here. Their 4k streams at 15.21mbps on my TV. Saying that, I think you can lower the quality in settings to use less data, 720 & 1080 are more reasonable bitrates.

  Good call. I'd be super wary of blowing out data because they don't understand how much Netflix uses.

There are some providers that don't count data from Netflix streaming if it is delivered over NBN peered. I would look in to this.
