Calling brainy people

[Jon L. Obscene]

Ok I never did understand all this kbs shit, but I wanted to know my upload, I been told it's 256kbps, ok fair enough, I then asked what upload I get, is that about 26k/bs, he just kept saying it's 256kbps :frusty: FFS!!!

So please could someone explain to me what 256kbps is in upload terms?

Jonno :cool:

Divide it by 8.

i thought this was the Temporary Moderation (http://www.geppers.com/forum/)

[TheDave]

256kb = 32kB - ~10% overheads

b=bits B=bytes

8b=B

and i always said when will i need algebra in real life

The fake geppers. :dry:

Nah, hopefully the proper forum should be fixed this week. :01:

[Jon L. Obscene]

Ah, so he lied, it's 32k/bs

I did actually remember something about dividing by 8 but could'nt remember what :lol:

Cheers cheese, now why could'nt he just tell me that, fucking numbnuts :frusty:

[TheDave]

[Jon L. Obscene]

How come you don't have ftp access Cheese?
I saw Sam's post, nasty prob that, unfortunately I don't know how to fix it without ftp access so could'nt help :(

Though, the reality will be any upload will flucuate. My max upload is 48kB/s but it rarely gets that high... :dry:

[Jon L. Obscene]

Yeah I know it fluctuates, I get an average of 28-30, I just needed to know my max and did'nt know for sure how to work it out.

Jonno :cool:
