Data Transfer Rate Converter — frequently asked questions
Internet speeds are usually advertised in bits per second (Mbps), while download managers show bytes per second (MB/s) — there are 8 bits in a byte, explaining the common mismatch.
Data transfer rates conventionally use 1000-based decimal prefixes (Kbps = 1000 bps), which this tool follows.
