downloadspeed and internet connection
i am a bit confused about speed
i have a 1 mbps adsl connection with dialup modem
my highest download speed is 100kbps and up 300kbps
i just thought that 1mpbs is 1000 kbps or ?
hope someone can give me a simple explination
thanks and marry x-mas to all
Re: downloadspeed and internet connection
kbps is kilobits per second, kBps is kilobytes per second.
So your theoretical maximum is 125 kB/sec (more like 105-115)
If your upload is 300kbps then your max would be 37.5 kB/sec (more like 32ish)
Bits and bytes are different, 1 byte is 8 bits.
