Megabit myth

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki

The megabit myth, or less commonly the gigabit myth, refers to the misconception[1] of only using Bandwidth (for example measured in megabit or gigabit per Second) to compare the performance of different Network Connections. While bit rates are a valid way of comparing the performance of different speeds of the same model and type of connection, other factors such as the Topology of the Access Network, type of Customer connection (Cable,DSL,Wireless,Satellite,Fibre), size and layout of queues, Delay, Bandwidth-delay product[2], ajacent Network connectivity and - Congestion can greatly affect the performance when considering different Connections.
