refraction is an unknown quantity at this point
Re: Please clear this up download speed

correct, the formula to get a theoretical max is as follows

20480mbps / 8bits = 2560k/sec (2.5MB/sec)

this is the RAW transfer speed, not accounting for overheads due to the packet headers etc. I can usually hit 2300-2400k/sec or so, which sounds about right.
