To measure the speed of the Internet we use multiples of this unit, such as kbps Kbps and Kilo bits equal to 1024 bits, mega bits per second Mbps and Mega equal to 1024 kilo, Giga bits per second Gbps and Algija equal to 1024 Mega, and usually the speed of the Internet at home Balmija measured in bits per second.

Measure the speed of the Internet is not as difficult as imagined by some simple Vbouktoat users can then know what the speed of the Internet in his computer anyway, and vary the real speed of the Internet for internal network that appear through the network icon in the taskbar, and some Internet users do not know the difference between the speed, The speed of the internal network is the speed of data access from home router internal to the user's PC The speed of the Internet user are outside your Internet connection speed.
