The two accronyms - kbps and Kbps - are one and the same. They mean kilo bits per second.

The other two - kBps and KBps - are also same. They mean kilo bytes per second.

1 KBps = 8 kbps.

No ISP in the world metions the speed in KBps or MBps, i.e., in bytes. It is always mentioned in kbps or mbps (bits).

ya its very simple thing you can see like

bit is the smaller one and byte is the bigger...
8 bits makes 1Byte

which means like... 256Kbps = 32kBps..

i think i m clear here now...

chalo chalo
