Download - Upload - Bandwidth Split?

4 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/download-upload-bandwidth-split.173833/

Hi Mates,

Have a basic query.

Say my Speedtest says as Download speed: 2 Mbps, Upload Speed: 1.7 Mbps

Its actually a 2 Mbps connection.

Now, will the download speed and upload speed be shared in this 256 KB/s? or each will have its own 256 KB/s?

Not quite sure about the second part of the query: <Now, will the download speed and upload speed be shared in this 256 KB/s? or each will have its own 256 KB/s?>

download & upload will both have their own speed limit...in your case u will get 256 KB/s download speed

one more thing to add.you will not get max download & upload speed simultaneously.independently you can get 256KB/s download or upload but not together.
