Home working: Application optimisiation

Some applications like video streaming service Netflix, offer different levels of bandwidth usage based on the quality of the video stream.

Unless there is a compelling reason to stream at 4K, a significant reduction in bandwidth usage can be achieved, by using lower quality video settings. Along with video streaming, it may also be worth trying a lower video setting on games consoles.
