The speed of your Internet connection affects instant watching The video quality of the movies and television series you watch instantly on your PC will vary based on your actual Internet connection speed.

How the speed of your Internet connection can change The speed of your Internet connection can change frequently based on network conditions in your residence and your Internet Service Provider's system.
If you are having problems with the speed of your connection, try the following.
Your residence - Check to see if others in your household are accessing the Internet while you are trying to watch a movie. Downloading music, streaming media, and online game playing can substantially reduce the amount of Internet connectivity available for watching instantly.
- If your computer is using a wireless network connection, make sure you are close enough to your wireless LAN access point to ensure strong reception. In addition, keep in mind that use of cordless phones and microwave ovens can cause interference with wireless networks.
Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) - Contact the ISP that provides your DSL, Cable, or other broadband network service and ask what speed you should be able to receive under your plan and whether you are actually receiving that speed.
Several levels of video quality Instant watching titles are available in multiple levels of video quality. Netflix automatically determines the level you receive by analyzing your current Internet speed. You can't select the video quality level yourself, and the level will change from time to time depending on actual network conditions.
