Frequently asked questions

Divide Mbps by 8, since there are 8 bits in a byte. A 100 Mbps connection is about 12.5 MB/s.

Mbps is megabits per second, used for connection speeds. MB/s is megabytes per second, used for file sizes, and is 8 times larger.

One gigabit per second equals 1,000 megabits per second.

Overheads, Wi-Fi, server limits and shared lines mean real speeds are usually below the advertised maximum.
