Questions about this tool
How many kibibytes per second are in one mebibyte per second?
1 MiB/s = 1,024 KiB/s exactly.
How do I convert mebibytes per second to kibibytes per second?
Use KiB/s = MiB/s × 1,024. For example, 25 MiB/s = 25,600 KiB/s.
How many mebibytes per second are in one kibibyte per second?
1 KiB/s = 0.000976563 MiB/s.
Why is my download slower than my plan speed?
Plans are sold in megabits per second while download tools show megabytes per second, so divide by 8: a 100 Mbps plan tops out at 12.5 MB/s in theory. Network protocol overhead takes a little more.
How long does a 1 GB file take at 100 Mbps?
1 GB is 8000 megabits, and 8000 ÷ 100 = 80 seconds under ideal conditions. Real transfers are usually a little slower.
