If you are uploading at 1348 kbbs, is that close to 1.5 meg?

Answer 1

kbps means KiloBits Per Second

To get mbps, or MegaBits Per Second, divide the figure by 1000

Therefore 1348kbps = 1.348 mbps

It is worth noting that the term 'kilobit' is often misinterpreted - 1kbps does in terms of bit rates does _not_ mean 1024 bits per second as the binary meaning of kilo would have you think, but 1000 bits per second:

1 kilobit per second (1kbps) = 1000 bits per second
1 kibibit per second (1Kbps) = 1024 bits per second

Answer 2

One meg is just over 1000kb. So you can estimate kbs to mbs by just moving the decimal point three places.

1348 kb is about 1.3megs

Answer 3

Not really. An upload speed of 1348 kbps would typically refer to bits per second, which should not be mistaken for bytes per second. 1 megabyte is typically 1,048,576 bytes. 1,348,000 bits would be 168,500 bytes, or about 168 kilo bytes per second.

Answer 4

hi there

A meg is 1024 KB. so your connection is about 1.3MB. but your upload speed is usually 1/8 of your uverall speed, so your maximum upload may be 2meg, with a line capacity of 8Meg.

hope this helps!!
