That's in kilobits, so divide that by 8 or 16 for a more accurate transfer rate. ie At 1.0kB/s, a 1MB file takes 1000 seconds or 20 minutes (around).

I don;t understand! In my example at 8KB would it take 1000/8 or 125 sec to download a 1MB file? Why the divide by 8 or 16 and divide what by what when? U got me confused?
