and i only downlad MAX at 250
READ ALL OF THIS...THIS IS USEFULL FOR A MEDIUM SKILLED INTERNET USER
Now your messing it up, as most people do..
4.7 Gb (not Ghz) = 4700 Mb = 4700000 Kb(
KILOBYTES) in 30 seconds = 4700000 : 30 ~ 186667Kb/s
Now let's imagine your connection is 512 kb(here's the error...
KILOBITS) Download....
Your MAXIMUM download capabilitie is 512 Kilobits Per Second = 512 / 8 = 64
kilobytes per second...which makes you realised you are wrong in that calculations
..
So to calculate Internet 2 speed you go like this..
1
kilobytes = 8
Kilobits
186667
kilobytes/s(OR ~ 18,7 Megabytes per second...imagine that speed OMG) x 8 = 1493336
Kilobits/s (Or ~ 149,3 Megabits per second)...Imagine how many times
your 512 Kilobits connection would fit in 149,3 Megabits...
hey i can do that also
1493336 : 512 = 2916,671875
that means it's 2917 times more faster then MY (yes my connection is 512 Kilobits Down..)Connection...Oh well let's dream
