FAQ
How do you convert bytes to bits?
Use the data-unit relationship for this pair. 1 byte equals 8 bits.
Why do bits and bytes cause mistakes?
The words look similar, but one byte contains eight bits, so speed and file-size estimates can be off by a factor of eight.
Should I use this for internet speed?
Use it to align units first. Internet speed often uses bits per second, while files usually use bytes.
