Explained: Understanding Internet Speed

- It's quite common for people to misunderstand internet speeds. For example, people will think that having a 500Mbps connection means being able to download a 500MB file in 1 second, wrong! It takes 8 seconds. That's what I explain in this video.

I'm embarrassed I never knew this until now. Thank you for the clear and beautiful explanation!
yessss... finally.... someone who actually emphasized the 'b' and the 'B'🙏👍...
wat u said in the video is very very true...a lot of people still don't realise the difference between the bit and byte symbols....
great video man...kudoos..👍
Babbling boolean dude you explain everything soo well I am sensing that your channel is going to trend. Just keep the number of uploads up.
7:08 How did you get 47 minutes for 50GB? Is it an estimation? When I used a calculator I got 44.44, in other words around 44 minutes.
Bro it’s probably just a rough estimate
I showed this video and the linked video to my parents & they understood "Internet" faster than me explaining them from 15 years
Great video 😌
You explained this concept like I have never seen. Thanks a million!
So very well explained. Thank You👍
Thanks so much. This is really helpful
... nice video, you might add though that once you divide the value Mbps with 8, the resultant value now becomes MBps (i.e. 12.5MBps) which is in byte, essentially converting bits to byte much like feet to meters... cheers
Thank you very much , i understood it better than other people ,❤👍
Thank you so much for making this video you’re my new best friend
I feel very very educated hearing this today 😂😂... Am even embarrassed.. I now know better when subscribing to ISP bundle.. Cheers 🥂
Great vid, thanks.
Good video, I had no idea about this and now I learned. Thanks man!
Thankyou I am electronically challenged…..you made it easy to understand! Helps me pick the speed with my internet server…HmmmI’m 79 years young You can teach an old horse new tricks!
Why didn't I found this channel before?
It's a must subscribed channel for tech enthusiasts. 👏
"Let's pretend I'm an average person" 🤣
Iknew someone was going to catch that.
To the creator of this video take all your social thoughts and anxiety and just trash em, Great video btw 🎉
Sorry if this is a dumb question 😅 should g and m be capital or the casing doesn't matter?
Yes it should be capital, see closer to the 3:30 mark.
Here is someone who has never used the internet at speeds greater than 1.5 mbps. Even getting 5 mbps is a pipe dream for me and yes, I live in the US, in the hills of Appalachia.
can someone please explain the calculations to get 47.43 secs.. the last example with calculating speeds and time it takes to download
Its because he calculated 1Gb as 1024MB :D I guess
I have never clicked the subscribed button this fast
I work for an internet company and had noooooo idea what I was talking about 4 months in.
😂
appreciate it
Brooo a legend
Good Job. I need to understand why my internet is not constantly the same. Being the ONLY SOLE user. So I'ved watched all your videos over a week span. I have fibre connected. Devices such as Desktop PC and PS Console are connected via ethernet. Mobile phone is the only device that connects to WiFi. Over a few months I've captured screenshots of the low internet speeds at various times around the clock. If the internet had to be water. the pressure of the stream would go up and drip drip drip and go up.....I wondered if electricity would run from the internet.... how everything will just shut down some random server had to be restarted in some part of the world. my ISP is a well established ISP. could others have the same problem. could it just be shitty ISP issued router?
1 Gigabit/ sec = 1GB/ 8 seconds
1 Gigabyte/sec = 1GB / sec
Question: for the last problem; did you mean 44.44 minutes or did I do the math wrong?
I think your equation is right but you looked at 50GB as 50,000MB? At a technical level that's incorrect. Don't look at a single GB as 1,000MB, read it as 1,024MB. Read this post for more information: www.quora.com/Is-1-GB-equal-to-1024-MB-or-1000-MB
@@Babblingboolean I feel like I'm still doing something wrong because i dont get your time of 47 minutes. If I convert the 50GB to MB using 1024MB, I get 51,200MB. I then divide that by the 18.75MBps and get 2730.66 seconds which translates to 45 minutes and 30 seconds? What am I doing wrong?
@@throughmycurls This is the same question I have.
@@throughmycurlsNo you're right. It comes out to roughly 45 and a half minutes.
Fk all this time the higher the number the faster 😂 thank you!
Lets say you buy 1000mbps, and you run speed test why is it only 100metes max scale on the speed test? Not 1000?
osm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow seems like it's intentionally deceptive because if it says 500 megabits per second download it should be 500 megabits per second download the only reason that somebody made a standard of 8 seconds is to make it deceptive cuz 500 Mbps should be 500 megabits per second per second
Damn are you working out
Yes my stomach is especially bulking up, it's the largest part on my body. 😝
@@Babblingboolean Oh
Lol dell? You mean bell 😂
Not sure if you’ve gone a video on how processor and network card configurations affect speeds yet, but as a ISP installation technician I find customer purchase speed that their hardware isn’t designed to handle. About 80% of the time in commercial and residential settings they have 10/100 hardline cards or they have a 10/1000 card that isn’t configured properly. I’ve even seen customers with Gigabyte speed tiers with wireless cards that only transmit on 802.11e on a b/g/n modulation on only 20mhz. Putting rocket fuel in a “Geo-metro” won’t make it go any faster.if possible could you do a video on hardware optimization?
There's a lot of ways people misunderstand internet speeds. I used to work as a cable technician for WOW internet and cable. Many customer will call in for technicians to come by because their bandwidth that they are paying for is not measured to what they expect. While the results is what it is, that doesn't mean close to what the customer is thinking. Speed results may come from connection physical link(s). Network interface devices and types. Wireless is always slower than 802.3 TIA copper standards. Wireless 802.11 types. Servers! Host devices! Services! Metrics of routing. Routers and or switches. Network settings and configuration, such as adaptive QoS or prioritization! Number of host receiving the broadcast. etc. The speeds your paying for is the throughput between your router into your isp connection router. The higher that throughput goes the more traffic can flow through the leg.
As usual, stupid advertisement
Complain the speed about 5 years then realised
dude your thinking is complicated, just say that byte is 8 bits and the rest is obvious
awsome man, thanks
