I need either a programmers way or an actual program that does it. The difficulty is thats its a flash movie loading other flash movies and i wanna find out how long it would take to download them all at once...
Looking for something that does down to 28.8Kbps connection all the way up to T1 and must takes BYTES not Kb or Mb...i think i know how to do it myself but i know someone has had to create it already.
 
Wouldn't it be:

(Total size of file) Bytes........8 bits........1 second
-----------------------------....x..-------...x...-------------- (connection speed) = Total time in seconds
............................................1 Byte......28,800 bits
 
28.8kbps = 2880 bytes (given the overhead with TCP/IP i divided by 10 rather than 8) per second.
56kbps = 4500 bytes per second (roughly - most connect at a max speed of about 45-48)
1mb broadband = roughly 100000 bytes per second


Divide by 10 from your connection speed and you should be OK 🙂

Confused
