Hello IT Guys,
My Provider is PLDT DSL, I have purchased 1 MB DSL Internet service which means that I have purchased 1024 kb. Unfortunately whenever I download any file it only provide 120 kb/s. So why 1 MB DSL provides only 120kb/s. why not 1024 kb/s? How this speed calculate and breaks?
The download speed that you are getting should be fairly consistent with the account that you signed up for with your internet service provider. I would take it that the 'B' in your question is a 'b' since PLDT DSL doesn't go up as high as an MB plan for consumers. You have a 1Mbps DSL plan. That's 1024 Mbps (Mega 'bits' per second). If you convert that to Kilo 'bytes', you'd get like 128 KBps. Taking into account communication overhead in the network, your download speed of 120 KBps (downloads are usually denoted in bytes and not in bits so it is in B not in b) should be just about what you'll be getting.
