Explicación Matemática
Download time calculation involves converting file size to bits, converting speed to bits per second, and accounting for network overhead.
Preguntas Frecuentes
Actual download times vary due to network congestion, server speed limits, WiFi interference, and multiple devices sharing bandwidth.
Mbps (megabits per second) measures internet speed, while MB/s (megabytes per second) measures download rate. Divide Mbps by 8 to get MB/s.
At 1 Gbps with 10% overhead, a 100 GB game takes approximately 13-14 minutes.
Network overhead refers to extra data transmitted for protocol management. This typically adds 5-10% to transfer time.
Use wired Ethernet instead of WiFi, close bandwidth-heavy applications, and download during off-peak hours.
