FAQ
What's the difference between bits and bytes?
A bit is the smallest unit of digital information (0 or 1). A byte consists of 8 bits. Internet speeds are typically measured in bits per second (bps), while file sizes are in bytes.
Why is my internet speed in Mbps but download speed in MB/s?
Internet providers advertise speeds in megabits per second (Mbps), but file downloads show megabytes per second (MB/s). To convert Mbps to MB/s, divide by 8 (since 1 byte = 8 bits).
What is a good internet speed?
For basic browsing, 10-25 Mbps is sufficient. For streaming 4K video or gaming, 50-100 Mbps is recommended. Gigabit internet (1000 Mbps) provides the fastest speeds.
