Download Speeds

[Leathal]

Download Speed up to: 6.0 Mbps Upload Speed up to: 768 Kbps Those are my rated speeds on the att website for my elite service internet. But when I download games like league or games from origin or online files i only get 600-700 KB/sec why is that? Is it my modem, or am i being throttled?

1 Megabyte = 8 Megabit

6mbps does not equal 6MB/s. It's quoted in Megabits a second, not Megabytes. Your download speeds are about right.

^What they said

It also depends on many factors.

Wifi or ethernet

Strength of server (distance)

 

e.t.c

1 Megabyte = 8 Megabit

 

This and upper-case B equals bytes and lower-case b equals bits.

 

So 6 Mbps / 8 = 0.75 MBps which is 750 KBps.
