bit or byte??

[bharathbala2003]

wats the diff between kilobits n kilobyte? the download speed we get is represented in which one? and i suppose kilobyte is higher than kilobit...

cos my ethernet broadband line operator said to multiply my downloads speed n sum crap tat i dint get..

8 bits = 1 byte

the download speed is in terms of kilobytes per second kBps

the connection speed is in terms of kilobits per second kbps
