Super Fibre 150 connection speed

Bit disappointed  I Just upgraded to super fibre 150 but my Netflix connection is only saying 77mbps . 

I know it's faster than my old connection but I was under the impression it would level out at 150mbps?

@Bogus+Sky+Caller given the Netflix app can only use 30Mb/s to stream in UHD there is no issue for you to worry about. WiFi speeds do not necessarily increase as you improve connection speed tomthe hub as they are affected by the layout and type of construction in your home. As a guide 50Mb/s is aboutvtge maximum any app can use and apart from faster downloads you wont see a speed up with faster connection

Thanks for your reply

If that's the case I should be able to stream in 4k without buffering?

@Bogus+Sky+Caller with a bandwidth of 77Mb/s you can easily stream in 4K assuming your home does not have a lot of radio interference.
