Re: Need a faster internet??

256 kilobits per second = about 31.5 kilobytes per second.

ISP's will always quote you the higher speed to make it seem faster. Almost any speed display will show you as bytes.

256 kb = 31.5 kB

What you see in your bittorrent client is kilobytes. kB.

The modem isn't speed rated, your circuit is where the limit is.
