No one wants slow internet, but faster speeds can quickly get expensive. You'll want to find a sweet spot between "still buffering" and "Comcast costs how much? Generally speaking, bandwidth is the maximum rate at which you can download data from the internet to your computer. Think about bandwidth like a water hose. Say you need to fill a gallon tank. If your garden hose puts out only 5 gallons of water per minute, you'll be waiting 20 minutes to fill the tank.

But a huge firehose that puts out a gallon of water every second will fill the tank in less than two minutes. Bandwidth is like the size of the hose. The larger it is, the more data you can pull down in a given time.

Bandwidth is measured in bits per second. Note that bits are different than bytes, the common measure of file size. One byte equals 8 bits, so 1 megabyte MB equals 8 megabits. Typical file sizes used in our calculations: 2MB for a webpage, 10KB for a basic e-mail, 2MB for a high-quality photograph, 5MB for a music track and 30MB for a typical application download.

For this reason, it will take around 8 seconds to download a 10MB 10 Megabyte file on a 10Mbps connection. For more information, see our guides to download speed and upload speed.
