Just had my broadband upgrade from 1mbps to up to 8mbps, was told that the max. on line would be 5.5mbps.
Router reports downstream speed of 7808 kbps.
Thanx in advance

Kbps is a measurement of speed (kilobits per second) mb is a measurement of size (megabyte). That would be like converting punds to miles per hour.

I wonder how many people get caught in the usual trap here?
First off, "kbps" means "kilobits per second", not kilobytes. To get from bits to bytes, divide by 8 (eight bits in a byte).
Second, there are 1,000 kilobits in a megabit, and 1,024 kilobytes in a megabyte.
So, put that together, and you have:
7,808kbps = 7,808 kilobits per second
= 976 kilobytes per second (divide kbps by 8)
= 0.95 megabytes per second (divide kilobytes by 1,024)
= 7.808 mbps (megabits per second, kbps divided by 1,000)

its about 0.95 megabytes a second, my connection is also about to be upgraded too. luckly for me i live about 800 meters from the exchange so i should be able to get full speed

1000 kb ~ 1 mb, so, roughly 7.8 MB. Let me know if you need exact.

1024kbps = 1mbps
So just calculate it.
It would b 7.625MB
