| Platinum Member  |  The download speed you are getting is just about right - a tad on the lower side. Perhaps you are not aware of bits and bytes practice adopted by ISPs. - ISPs advertise their speed in kilobits per second and is denoted as kbps (note the lower case 'b') - Download speeds are displayed in kilobytes per second and denoted as KBps (note the uppercase 'B') - 8 bits = 1 byte So theoratically, you should get 256/8 kbps or 32 kBps as your maximum speed. But download speed also depends upon: - load on the source server - load at the BSNL internet backbone - if you are browsing in parallel during downloads - number of seeding peers in a torrent and whether ports are forwarded
