Kbps–Gbps–
Estimates only. Real times and data use depend on the server, the app and your network.
Mbps and MB/s are not the same
A small b means bits; a capital B means bytes. One byte is 8 bits, so MB/s = Mbps ÷ 8 and Mbps = MB/s × 8.
| Plan speed | Best download speed | 1 GB file takes about |
|---|---|---|
| 10 Mbps | 1.25 MB/s | 13 min 20 s |
| 40 Mbps | 5 MB/s | 3 min 20 s |
| 100 Mbps | 12.5 MB/s | 1 min 20 s |
| 300 Mbps | 37.5 MB/s | 27 s |

Times are the ideal at full speed, with 1 GB = 1,000 MB. See the download time calculator for any file.
