Find out exactly how long your game, movie, or large file will take to download.
Waiting for a massive 100GB game or a 4K movie to download can be frustrating, especially if you don't know when it will finish. Our Download Time Calculator removes the guesswork.
This is the most common point of confusion! Internet providers sell speeds in Megabits per second (Mbps) with a lowercase "b". However, file sizes are measured in Megabytes (MB) with an uppercase "B". Because there are 8 bits in a byte, a 100 Mbps internet connection actually downloads at a maximum speed of 12.5 MB/s. Our calculator automatically handles this math for you.
Our calculator provides a mathematically perfect estimate based on constant speed. In reality, your download might take slightly longer due to network overhead (usually around 10%), server bandwidth limits (the host server might upload slower than you can download), Wi-Fi interference, or other devices on your network using the internet.
Assuming a constant speed with no network drops, a 50 Gigabyte (GB) file downloading on a 100 Megabit per second (Mbps) connection will take approximately 1 hour, 8 minutes, and 16 seconds.
