RE: Weird Story of Troubleshooting a Weird Laptop Issue (Part 3)
Hi there, good to be back at your posts. I thought it's an issue of only South East Asia like I have a connection of 8MB per second but the downloads won't even cross 1MB per second. It's terrible all over
That isn't really an issue of SEA, but probably your ISP. And also, probably you got the 8Mb package which translates to 1MB download speed, nothing is wrong, lol. Bits (b) and bytes (B) are different things.

I understand but can't understand how 8mb turns into 1mb for downloads, yet it shows above 7mb on every online speed checking websites.
If you use Speedtest.net, it shows the speed in bits. Normally speed testing sites don't give the speed in bytes for some reason.

Yeah I will try that, but the websites I used showed the speed in MBs , and a 7mb+ result for a 8mb connection is fair enough but only in the website results, in real it gets down to 1mb or even lower lol
