Mbps to MB/s Converter
Translate a network speed into a file transfer rate—or go the other way. Capitalization matters: Mb is megabits and MB is megabytes.
Why the numbers differ
Internet plans are commonly advertised in bits per second. File copy dialogs often report bytes per second. The prefixes can look identical, but the uppercase B represents a unit eight times larger.
MB/s = Mbps ÷ 8
Mbps = MB/s × 8
Mbps = MB/s × 8
This conversion changes units only. It does not estimate Wi-Fi loss, protocol overhead or server performance.
