Common data rate conversion mistakes

  • Network speeds always count in decimal: 1 kbit/s = 1,000 bit/s and 1 Mbit/s = 1,000,000 bit/s. Binary prefixes (Kibit/s, Mibit/s, based on 1,024) are a different scale mostly seen in download managers. Don't mix the scales when comparing measured speed against what your ISP promised.
