A QUICK WALKTHROUGH
How to use this tool
- Enter a finite non-negative file size and choose its unit.
- Enter a positive link speed and choose bit/s or byte/s.
- Read the theoretical duration; real transfers vary.
Theory only
The estimate excludes protocol overhead, congestion, latency, throttling, and other real-world effects. It does not represent guaranteed completion time.
GOOD TO KNOW
