1mbit connection = 120kbs top speed? :( 1mbit=1024kbits=128kB/s (1024 / 8) So 20mbit = 2560kB/s

1mbit connection = 120kbs top speed? :( Orange spain offers 20 MB Adsl at around 45 euros a month. And Tele2 offers the same at 40 euros or so.

Most of ppl here can afford 100USD per month for a 1mbit connection and thats why everything is so expensive
1mbit connection = 120kbs top speed? :( What the hell? What country do you live in? for 120 euro a month converted into usd I can probably get 100Mb/s up and down. What a ripoff. Yeah no kidding. I could get a 25Mbit line here for under $100USD/mo but I pay $45 for my 10Mbit connection because that's good enough for me

1mbit connection = 120kbs top speed? :( 1st of all sorry for such a late response, well we have quite many choices here but all are at speed of 1mbit connections. Now finaly we got 1 company that provides 4mbit for "only" 120 euro per month....
1mbit connection = 120kbs top speed? :( 120KB/s is very good over a 1Mb line. Can't you get more than 1Mb?
1mbit connection = 120kbs top speed? :( It's good to know that someone is getting the maximum line speed. If not for so many people getting bits and bytes mixed up, the forums might be a quiet place That's the part that worries me. Your ISP is obviously port-throttling and 5-kilobytes is a very severe throttle for a 1-megabit connection. It's generally best to not share the same port with other services (like web-browsing) but it seems you have no choice here.

1mbit connection = 120kbs top speed? :( Theoretically, at 1 Mbit your maximum bandwidth would be 128 KB. However, in actual practice, your bandwidth will likely exceed your connection speed. Therefore, it is not irrefutable to state your maximum bandwidth x at 1.33 times your theoretical output. To calculate your upload speed divide your actual download speed by your theoretical upload speed minus one.

Only commercial grade (read: $$$) is symetrical, so your upload speed is....? And of course most speed monitors are in BYTES, which was pointed out; so that 1Megabit connex will read out as 125KBYTES. /8, since there are (by convention) 8 bits per byte.
