Possible to change default downloader speed displaying rate from KBps to Mbps?

I'm pretty tired of doing the calculations from KBps to Mbps (speeds advertised for internet connections). No one deals in KB for most stuff downloaded on the net. More in the order of MB. However, it would be easier to see how well its performing in Mbps. That way i can see how close to maximum it's running for a connection (wireless 3G, ADSL / DSL etc)
Is there somewhere in firefox i can change that output thats displayed in the download window from KBps to Mbps?
help greatly appreciated.

any ideas?

    Hi, Is it possible to change the language when renting movies from apple TV?

    It depends on how the java code is gnerated. If for example months are given with fixed array .... then it will only be english
    But then agin you have the source code (.java files) open all java files in the oracle.forms froject and alter to your language then recompile and reacreate the jar (easily done with Jdeveloper)

  • I am a US resident but spend several months each year at my house in England. Is it possible for me to download UK iPad apps from the iTunes Store? Right now they seem to be restricted. Can I set up an alternate iTunes account using a UK credit card?

    When you go to Starbucks, you'll need to first go to Settings on your iPad and choose Network. You'll see ATTWIFI as one of the available networks. When you click on that to select it, you should be immediately sent to AT&T's sign in page. You just need to check the box that says you agree to their terms and conditions and then hit the Connect button and you'll be online. One warning, however. If your Starbucks is anything like those in Manhattan, be prepared for really slow wifi. It can be a real pain waiting for pages to load sometimes.

  • Broadband download speed has dropped from ~2.7Mbps...

    Hello,
    For the last few weeks our broadband download speed has dropped from ~2.7Mbps (which we've been getting consistently for years) down to 0.7Mbs. It's now so low that our download speed is slower than our upload speed. I've take the following steps and nothing has worked:
    Running the BT Broadband Speed Checker
    Removing all equipment so its just the BT Home Hub connected through a BT Microfilter straight into the master socket
    Replacing the modem cable and Microfilter
    Online line fault check
    As I say, it only recently - over the last few weeks - that our speed has decreased so massively from what we've been getting for years and it is extremely frustratingly slow - I can get faster speeds via my mobile phone's 3G network.
    Here's a screenshot of the ADSL line status from the BT Home Hub.

    when you joined BT broadband you would have received an email address *****@btinternet.com or  ******@btopenworld.com   Bt would normally send the emails to that address

  • Download speeds displayed

    With latest version 20, the new download manager, no longer displays download speeds per file. Anyway to return that function?
    Thank you!

    Hi djvtech, I read about a way to do that. When you hover your mouse over the download, the tooltip that displays shows the speed. Inserting that tooltip into the actual Download Panel is possible but it's somewhat complicated. See this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/956728 Is there any way to make the new downloads panel show the current speed of a download?]

  • Change default downloader?

    Is it possible to change the default program that Safari uses for downloads? The Chinese person who posted on 19 April is asking why he can't use Thunder, or another program, to download his files. In Edit | Preferences there does not seem to be an option for this.

    Hello everyone,
    It's possible to change the default self-service membership settings for spaces?
    The user wants that every space created on Webcenter Spaces have the "Allow Self-Service Membership os Self-Service membership Change" option always selected by default.
    It can be done?
    Thanks,

    thank you for the answer.. but the best approach would be customizing the task flow or there's a metadata that can be changed for this option?

  • Is it possible to adjust the download speed?

    I was just wondering if there was a way to adjust the download speed of iTunes. Reason being, I want to be able to download music or whatever but just at a lower speed (like in the background) so I can still do whatever else I want and not have to worry about lag. That way I don't have to worry about pausing and resuming all the time.

    I know this can be done if you are using another computer in path to do some traffic shaping. Many ISPs do this for P2P program traffic.
    Yuor computer should be able to share available bandwidth between applications. Unless on of your apps is sensitive to other traffic this should be automatic.

  • Download speed of drivers from Creative

    '? Well, I just bought the Creative WoW Wireless Headset which I know was a mistake. I'll return it when I get the chance of course. But I'd at least like to try it for a few days.
    So now I'm trying to download the drivers for it but the download speed is currently 0.6 kB/s which means I should be finished downloading the 66 MB driver in a few weeks or so. I tried to go to the Canadian website but it doesn't exist anymore? (broken link maybe lol)
    Is there a way to download the drivers for it without having to wait 30 days and lose my chance of being able to return it for my $200 back? Ex. someone upload the driver to an uploading site please!
    Edit: Oh great, I have to clear my cookies because I can't visit creative.com anymore...just redirects me to?http://ca.uat.clok.creative.com/?which DOES NOT EXIST!

    I have actually tried various set-ups.
    My first was to store my movies on an external drive attached to my iMac upstairs - Result = constant pauses. I also tried changing to different channels on my Time Capsule.
    My second set-up was to see if there was a problem with the connection due to the fact my iMac was upstairs and my ATV and TC downstairs. So, I used my PowerBook downstairs, therefore it is in the same room as my ATV and TC - Result = Same problem as above
    My 3rd set-up was to put my movies on the TC but still the same problem
    Then of course I tried the wired set-up I spoke about and that's fine. I have also tried various other settings like changing the channel on my TC changing the Multicast rate etc etc but no joy.
    The thing is my internet connection is fine, no problems at all and I also have a Sonos wireless music system which works without any problems whatsoever. I can only assume that for whatever reason it just does not like the amount of bandwidth needed to stream video. I have 3 computers that use the TC but when I try to stream anything I ensure everything is shut down and it is only the iMac that is sending data so not to clog up the bandwidth.
    I should also point out that I am using a new iMac (nearly new) 2GHz Intel Core Duo with 2 GB RAM, so it shouldn't be a problem with the Mac.

  • Opening second tab, no address causes download speed to drop from 160 kbs to less than 5 kbs and sits there doing nothing, does not happen with IE, why is this

    after firefox updated from 27 to 28, when i download a file, play music, watch a video, or run a speed test, normal speed is about 160 kb/s (dsl connection 1.3 Mb/s) - just opening another blank tab (not any address) or try to open another page like google search page, download speed drops to less than 5 kb/s - downloading stops, and second page does not open, why is this happening, it does not happen with internet explorer and the version of IE i have is out of date,
    history/cookies all clear automatically when close, i have disabled all add on, run malware, adware searches - show no problem, norton antivirus is up to date, i have spent hours on phone with ATT isp and connection is showing no problem - if i run a speed test it shows good, if i try to run a speed test and open second tab - speed fails and speed test will not even finish, ATT suggested I try the same thing in IE and there is no problem - so it appears to be an issue with Firefox 28

    What is the CPU load when this slowdown happens?
    Are you using a specific driver in Windows to mange the internet connection that might not get enough processor time to run properly?
    It is also possible that other (security) isn't able to do its work and takes additional CPU time.
    Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
    *http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-start-windows-in-safe-mode/
    You can try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem if starting Firefox in Safe Mode didn't help.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

  • Exceptionally slow download speeds, no answers from company

    We upgraded to 75/75 last week. After installing the new router, my husband, who is a network engineer working from home noticed that the download speeds were exceptionally slow, averaging about 1.5 Mbps. Upload speeds were fine. We called customer service last Saturday and were told it was an outage that would be fixed "soon". That was six days ago. Still no fix. He can't work here because the speeds are too slow. While all the customer service reps have been very nice, no one can get us an answer about when, if ever, it will be fixed. Considering calling Comcast. Thoughts? Anyone else having the same issues?

    There were some service issues in the northeast today but they were resolved around noonish.   Are you still having the problem? This may all be very basic, especially to your network engineer husband, but.... If you're still having the problem,  are you getting the slow download speeds via wifi or with a hardwired (Ethernet) connection to your router? What results do you get using the Verizon speedtest:  http://my.verizon.com/services/speedtest/ And what results at www.speedtest.net? That additional info may help a fellow user here on the forum suggest where the problem lies and what you might do about it.

    Is it possibile to transfer my downloaded QuickTime Pro software from my old computer to my new computer?  I don't want to buy it again if I can help it.

    Open the QuickTime Player 7 app and look under the Edit menu / Preferences / Registration window to copy down the name, org and number.
    Install the free player on the new machine and enter the registration info and test. If everything works as it should erase the registration info on the old machine.
