we have some 20 computer in network
now new net provider which is wire less internet connecttion says thier connection is 128kbps.....

so what i ideal kbps i can expect if
1)only one of the computer in network is using net....
2)if all 20 comp are using net....ie per computer what may be kbps


the net gets fast in mornings ...but at max it is upto 10kbps when i use only one comp ie internet
so is it good connection....
what is ideal download kbps that can go if i use internet in only one computer (ie internet in only one computer) and if they say they are giving 128 kbps...

actually they say 128 if i use it in one computer...i hope it should have gone more than 10kbps insn't it..?

any helps and ideas...

For 1 pc, you will get close to (not actual)128kbps speed.
128kbps=16KBps.
So for 20 pc if they are accessing net at the same time(this happens rarely), individual speeds will be upto 12.8kbps or 1.6KBps.

How did you measure the speed?

i think 512 kbps or 1 mbps better for 20 pcs... and install some soft to control bandwidth on all pcs... and it depends also upon type of work....
