However, the reality is that your dataflow isn't consistant over the day, going higher and some points, lower at others. So you may have moments when you are using a full 10mbps and other times when you are using only 3 or 4.
Gigs of bandwidth is measuring how much went through the tube. MBPS is measuring how big the tube is. Size of tube X time = possible gigs flowing.
I am sure someone more technical will correct me and make me look silly, but hey...  |
Sounds right to me so 10MBPS meteered is essentially that same as 3TB/month except that your 10MBPS metered is guaranteed to not exceed 3TB/month
whereas my 3TB per month is basically 10 MBPS 24/7 and if I use more then the MBPS rises accordingly
