Here’s Why Your Downloading Speed Is Always Lesser Than What Your Service Provider Promises.!! . 2 4k f Facebook WV Twitter SHARES Internet connection is a must for every household today. It is worth saying that — in today's generation a person can live without food but can’t survive without a smart phone and obviously the internet connection. It has become so important that we carefully choose the pack and pay for the desired pack from the Internet Service Provider (ISP). But have you ever wondered or checked why your downloading speed is always lesser than what your ISP promises? Actually it is myth that our speed is always lesser than what our ISP promises. Confused? Smart marketing strategy of Internet Service Providers The Internet Service Provider (ISP) always lures people by their marketing strategy so as to buy their service. In other words ISP always gives you the speed in terms of Bits per second but when downloading a file from internet, the downloading speed will be shown in Bytes per second. This leads to so much confusion in the mind of a common man and he thinks | have been cheated To make it simple we will take an example: Let us consider that your ISP has promised a download speed of 2 Mbps, it means they provide you 2 Mega bits per second but not 2 Mega Bytes per second, Now coming to the conversion of bits into bytes, 1 Byte = 8 bits i.e divide by 8 to convert bits into bytes. 2 Mega bits per second = 2 Mbps / 8 = 2048 Kbps / 8 = 256 Kilo Bytes per second (KBps) So the actual download speed you get is just 256 KBps (which is equivalent to 2 Mbps) but not 2 MBps. So don't be confused about your download speed next time and don''t forget to share your views in the comments section below.Share Your Views In Comments Below 27 Comments Sort by| Oldest Add a comment, Varunteja Jonnala - Software Engineer at Tata Consultancy Services Good Job..Keep posting like this Like “Reply = 1 hrs Pushpendra Hbk Sengar - Founder and COO at Sengars labs 256 hi de do kam se kam Like Reply 0527-13 hrs 33 Thank you Like “Reply +13 hrs Agarwal» Chamarchi, Samchi, Bhutan Jay Sarkar: Founder and Owner at Delta Software Technologies Good information.
