Questions about this tool

How many mebibytes per second are in one megabyte per second?

1 MB/s = 0.953674 MiB/s exactly.

How do I convert megabytes per second to mebibytes per second?

Use MiB/s = MB/s × 0.9536743164. For example, 25 MB/s = 23.8419 MiB/s.

How many megabytes per second are in one mebibyte per second?

1 MiB/s = 1.04858 MB/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.
