Mbps and MBps are two completely different things. bits vs Bytes

LOL. Thanks for the warning. I'm getting 100+Mbps which is what I have been getting for the last year here and 7 years up north. Don't believe I ever wrote MBps but thanks for the scam warning. ;) Frankly all my 30+ years in the biz I have just called it "megs" because that's the shortcut when discussing ISP speeds and what customers usually call it. Never been asked if I wanted to pay for or was selling MBps or Mbps! :D

It's been that way forever. I have had to deal with it on both sides of the fence (buying AND selling).
