All the internet speed test sites I have used use Megabytes as standard for measuring speed. Good enough for me.

Are you sure about that? All the ones I've used show the speed as Mbps, which is Megabits per second. Most of the time, internet speed is usually shown in Megabits, and data storage is Megabytes. But it makes sense, because Megabits per second will show higher numbers, eight times as high as a matter of fact. 80 Mbps will show as 10 MBps.

Bits or Bytes whatever works for me is fine. I pay less than $60 a month for Spectrum speeds running between 106 to 130 download. And my on the road original legacy AT&T mobley runs beteen 87 to 103 bits or bytes most of the time.

I am one super happy camper. Captain Happy.

Oh yeah, those speeds are excellent, and more than sufficient for most anything. It's just something to be aware of, nothing more. It would be like buying a car that's advertised to do 200, and you find out they're talking 200 KPH. No difference between 200 KPH and 125 MPH, they're both fast. But 200 sure looks impressive.
