THat's right ! MBPS stand for megabits. The problem is not many
prople knows about this. They think it's MB.
The ISPs used this fact and over exaggerate it as
"superfast" in their adverts and thus misleading the public. This
builds up and everyone assume that their internet speed is slow but
actually thats what you pays for.
