I'm trying to work out how many MBs of intrernet usage I'm getting through a month. My phone only records it in "B's" and I'm not techno wizard, google proved pointless when I tried that, confusing be further with bytes and bits and sents and received!

Anyway, quite simple for you I'm sure, what's my typical usage in MB?

MB = B/1024/1024. HTH. TTFN.


ETA - knock off the last 6 digits and round up.

So you've sent about 38MB, and received about 480MB. (or about 1/2 GB).

Google's always good for quick stuff like that.

For example, type into google search " 4€ in £ " and it will give you the answer immediately.

Same with B / MB

except it has to be expressed as "bytes in MB", b|B doesn't work (for me anyway).
