To stream Netflix 4K resolution (2160p) you need about 20-25 megabits/sec of bandwidth (according to Netflix). However, Netflix is adaptive so it will adjust the resolution to whatever bandwidth it senses. This is necessary to prevent buffering delays. You have more than sufficient bandwidth for 1080p. The reason I have 40 megabits/sec download is I used to move 50 gigabyte tarballs around on a regular basis.

If it ain't broke don't fix it. My area just north of 466A is fiber optic since I signed on in 2011, no modem at all. We plug the router or computer directly into the wall jack.
