Internet plans are sold in bits per second (Mbps); downloads show bytes per second (MB/s). 1 byte = 8 bits.

Download / upload time at this rate
Real transfers lose some speed to protocol overhead and congestion β try 10%.

4,000,000,000 bytes at 100 Mbit/s.
Type the rate, for example your plan's 100 Mbps.
Bits per second (how internet plans are sold) or bytes per second (how downloads show progress).
Add a file size to see how long it takes at that speed, with optional overhead.
12.5 MB/s. Divide megabits per second by 8 to get megabytes per second.
Protocol overhead, Wi-Fi, congestion and the server's own limit all eat into it. Try 10β20% overhead in the time calculator.
A lower-case b is bits, upper-case B is bytes. 1 MBps (MB/s) = 8 Mbps.
