Option to change limit speed from kilobit/s to kilobyte/s

[MarvelousX]

You have an option to show download speed in kilobit and by default the app show download speed as kilobyte, but there is no option to change the download limit speed to kilobyte/s? It's confusing to use like that.

it's not confusing, just learn maths

Bits allows you to more accurately limit the speed than bytes.
Use a calculator, just do bytes / 8 for bits

This is from modems era. Extremely outdated way to present simple information.

+1, change it to the way it's on default client.

If you're having to set speed limits down to the kilobit, you probably should not be downloading anything big like videogames.

Yes it was very useful with BITS back when we downloaded sh*t with 300-2400 baud modems.Funnily enough its 2023 now and even KB/s is to small. Really should be MB/s

For the suffering like myself, There is a toggle in the Download settings, "Display download rates in bits per second".
If you disable that it will revert to KB/s which is no MB/s, but much better than bits.

Hope this helps

They add that later on. That setting isn't a thing back then. While you can switch display unit for network speed, the speed limitation, no matter what unit you use, it still in bits/sec

In my settings that says it's in KB/s
