======================= My Wireless network is 54Mbit.
bethere.co.uk claims to be 24MB down speed.
So my network isn't fast enough? ==========================
I know the above must be wrong so can someone tell me why its wrong so i can understand the correct calculation.
thank you
Bethere only claims 24 mega bits not bytes. See question about what 24 megs means.
So would that be 3MB ? (24/8)
Probably more like 2.4-2.7 (you need to allow for protocol bits etc).
Your wireless by the way will be approx half of 54 at best - there's a LOT of overhead in wireless, plus its half-duplex. plus all connected devices share the bandwidth.
