Bandwidth: How good/bad actually is 512 kbps internet speed?
Well considering we are in 2018 512kbps is pretty bad, the maximum speed which you could download something would be 512/8=64KB/s thats really not good for example to download 1Gb it would take 1024000 (which is 1gb in kB) 1024000/64=16,000 seconds that's about 4.44 hours, that's not really good considering with my 50mbps (of which I get about 47) that would be 47/8=5.875 mB/s, so 1025/5.875= 174.2 seconds so just below 3 minutes
How do I know if the internet in my phone is 2G, 3G or 4G?
There are always symbols that appear on your screen at the top which signifies which internet facility are you currently availing. I’m mentioning them below in points.‘G’ stands for GPRS i.e. General Packet Radio Service and is the slowest in comparison to all other standards. It is used in the GSM i.e Global System for Mobile or we can simply say 2G.‘E’ is an extension of GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) and is called EDGE i.e. Enhanced Data (rates for) GSM Evolution. It is correspondingly a little faster than GPRS, but still uses the old GSM or 2G.‘3G’ stands for UMTS i.e. Universal Mobile Telecommunication System and is the successor to the GSM and much faster.HSPA i.e. High Speed Packet Access is a 3rd Generation (3G) technology based on UMTS standards offering faster data download speeds at the cost of upload speeds. The HSPA family of technologies is quite large, covering High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA), High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA), and Evolved High Speed Packet Access (HSPA+).‘H’ stands for HSPA family members like HSDPA or HSUPA.‘H+’ stands for HSPA+. Both use the UMTS.H is faster than 3G and H+ is faster than H.4G (Fourth Generation) stands for LTE (Long Term Evolution) and is the fastest.If any of these symbols appear on top of your mobile screen. Now you can know which internet facility you are currently using.Feel free to message me if any query.Peace.
Why my Jio internet speed is slow even I doesn't cross the limit?
Hi,I am a very very heavy data user due to nature of my job. I had tested all .They don’t have the infrastructure to support the speed they claim. Not JIO alone, AIR TEL, IDEA and VODAFONE doesn’t have it. Don’t go for there marketing gimmicks. Best speed at the the moment a network provide is a 3 G only network. Yes, none of the so called 4G networks are anywhere near it. And this network is BSNL. Only problem with BSNL is that there employees are still living in 80’s era, they think they are King. Nill customer support, no complaint solutions and it takes days days sometime if there is a fault. I use BSNL as my primary Number and for Data. Reason, not for tariffs beings very low but for superior data speed. I get around 12 MBPS on BSNL 3G, where its around below low 2 MBPS for AIR TEL & IDEA. For Vodafone, I get around 6 to 7 MBPS on a good day, but average is around 2 MBPS.My 2 CENTS, go for BSNL as primary but also take a backup.PS: I am based in NCR. I have the flexibility of choosing network of Delhi and Haryana, so I will not accept that coverage is low due to region.
Even though I get full network everywhere my Vodafone Internet speed is very slow, why?
Various factors can affect your internet speed lets point out some major ones.is it any particular website you having the problem with or your device have enough free internal space make sure its free enough then it comes to network congestion and bad weather conditions like thunderstorms it may affect the speed then again check if you have high speed balance left. sometimes restarting your phone helps so do that and you can try it on other phones to check if something is wrong with your phone or not if there is then take it to the service center then what you can try is manually setting up the APN on your phone and see if it helps.
Why is my internet fast in the morning and slow at noon and evening?
Time specific fluctuations in speed are usually because of the contention ratio of your ISP’s service.Rated bandwidth for ADSL is allocated not only according to the link speed, say 8 megabit or 24 megabit, but also how many other local users you share that connection with.Not all ADSL packages are equal, contention ratios are rarely declared. They can vary from 50:1 (eg 8mb shared with 50 other users) to 1500:1 (eg: 8mb shared with 1500 other users).When the network is busy, you will find that peak speed can drop considerably, and HTML page requests will even time out. I have seen the speed drop down to 0.2 kbps for an inferior 8mb connection with a high (undeclared) contention ratio.It is typically not the Internet backbone that is the bottleneck, although a tier 3 gateway can also be a pinch point and suffer from overload, or an ISP can be engaged in all sorts of potentially nefarious bandwidth throttling or traffic shaping activities, interfering with P2P traffic such as bittorrent.It should also be noted that services and data centers you are accessing will have performance that varies according to the server load, and some PHP based sites will become very slow or even throw up timeouts if there are a lot of users hitting the server.
How do I convert bandwidth MHz to Mbps?
Simplistically, 1MHz is 1Mbps.Realistically, it’s nothing of the sort.If we assume that the data is a sequence of 1’s and 0’s that are encoded in the signal amplitude, then it needs a bandwidth equal to its bit rate to encode the fastest-changing signal (10101010…).However… this ignores that you can’t just send 1’s and 0’s out into the ether and expect them to be received at the other end. There will be errors, dropped bits, changed bits, and the clocks on either end will be a little out of sync with each other. Therefore we need to add a few other bits in order to frame them, and some more to allow us to check for errors and ask for retransmissions. So out of every hundred bits that we send, we may have to transmit maybe 120. So the maximum throughput is lower than the bandwidth.On the other hand, we don’t have to be limited to only using the signal amplitude if the channel allows it. Remember the days of dial-up modems? A telephone line has a bandwidth of 2700Hz. So how come we could get a 56,000 bits per second signal through it? That’s twenty times the theoretical limit. It depends on the fact that the phase of the signal can also be altered and that, although the maximum frequency carried on the line is 3kHz, it is provided by digital electronics that are sampling it much faster.So, in reality, there is no relationship between MHz and Mbps unless you also know the encoding scheme. And then it’s complicated.
How do we increase the download speed in UC browser?
Launch Uc browser on PCGo to SettingsClick on the grey coloured squirrel icon or ≡ button at the top-right corner of the app and select Settings from the drop-down list.Scroll down to Download settings. Check the Enable uSpeed checkbox, which you can see under the Download folder option.Finished. Now, uSpeed will boost your download speed. To turn this feature, just uncheck the Enable uSpeed checkbox.
