friendly luggage Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Not to sure what you're asking but internet service providers advertise their speeds in megabits (Mb) as the number is larger than megabytes (MB). 9.3Mb translates to just over 1MB meaning you should get 1 megabyte download speeds in a perfect scenario. Little tip: Transfer speeds are usually always in displayed in bits and storage is displayed in bytes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aly Zaroon Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 you should get 1 megabyte download speeds in a perfect scenario. Perfect scenario? Means no other device should be active right? And how much internet speed is required to have a,1 mbps download speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzy Fozborne Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 You divide it by ten. One byte represents 8 bits and there is around a 20% overhead that doesn't actually transmit user data. If you want a 1 megabyte/second internet, you will need to pay for 10 Mbps internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn 7 five 11 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 ^I don't believe that for a second, the fastest downloads in the entire world aren't even that fast. At the OP, I don't think you understand MBps and Mbps Mbps = Megabits per second MBps = MegaBytes per second. 1 Megabit is equal to 0.125 MegaBytes. Or 8 Megabits = 1 Megabyte. Every single internet provider advertises mbps (Megabits) not MBps (MegaBytes.) So if you have a 9Mbps (Megabits) connection, it translates to 1.125 MBps (MegaBytes.) Also Illegal Luggage's comment about optimum conditions doesn't just mean only one device connected on your home network, that makes little difference, it means that your internet provider has optimum conditions as well, which is completely out of your control, it's dependant on how many people in your local area are using the internet from the same internet provider or over the same internet cables. If someone on your street connects to the internet, they are going to make your internet slower. Also can you please make a coherent topic? Your opening post hardly makes sense, and is extremely ambiguous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like a f*cktard who knows 0.1% out of the whole technology and I want to study computer science, what a fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's cool, you learn as you go, it takes time, nobody can possibly know everything, and there is always someone who knows something you don't, or never even thought of, even if it's an interest of yours. Just keep reading around, google sh*t, google some more sh*t, read some stuff and you learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
