standard? I don't even get higher than 6MB down
To clear up confusion, 6MBps (MegaByte) down would be equal to 48Mbps (Megabit). So you would be above the mentioned standard.
Or you made typo, then you're indeed below standard ^^"
I think I made a typo and misread the title itself. the full uppercase and lowercasing of data speeds is confusing to me
One is a rate of data, the other is an amount.
Mbps means megabits per second.
MB is just megabytes. You can of course turn it into a rate, but then it would be MB/s.
There are 8 bits in a byte, so 100 Mbps would be 12.5 MB/s (divide by 8)
Thank you for taking the time to explain that! I think I understand the difference now
