because it took 44 minutes and 15 seconds to work it out maybe?
Re: question about file transfer speeds
We established it would take around 40 mins on the first page, my question was this...

Yes it did take around 40 mins, but how does this work, I have a 250kb max upload which gives me approx 25kb/s upload, so 25kb is1 40th of a meg, therefore 1 meg would take 400 seconds to upload, that's the logic, but not the fact, because I don't get all this kbits and Kbits, it's fucking stupid, like the old playstation mem cards were not 1 megabite, they were 1 megabit, but they conned people by selling them as 1Mb.
Getting annoyed now :angry:

Jonno :cool:
250/8 = 31.25 kB/s (bytes) - your upload speed ( divided by 8 so you have bytes instead of bits)
83007.8125/31.25 = 2656.25 - the file size divided by your upload, answer is the seconds it will take
2656.25/60 = 44.27083333... minutes - the seconds divided by 60 to give you minutes
Does that help? :frusty:

If you freakin want to be exact about it:
250/8 = 31.25 kB/s (bytes)
83007.8125/31.25 = 2656.25
2656.25/60 = 44.27083333... minutes
250 refers to your speed that speed tests and your ISP states your speed is. Which they all refer to your speed in bits. Almost everything else uses bytes. There are 8 bits in one bit. That is why I divided 250 by 8, to get you kilobyte speed.
I then divided the size of the file (in kilobytes to keep everything the same) by your maximum upload speed.
That gave me how many total seconds were needed to complete the transfer. I then divided that by 60 to turn it into minutes.
EDIT: Damn you DanB :P
Re: question about file transfer speeds
Ok I think I got that, thankyou both.
still think it's fucking stupid, why name them bits and bytes, kb and kb are 2 different things, what a fucked up system, and why have it divisible by 8, another stupid fucking idea :angry:
