How to convert Megabits per second to Gigabits per second
To convert megabits per second to gigabits per second, multiply by 0.001. One megabit per second equals 0.001 Gbps, and one gigabit per second equals 1,000 Mbps.
- Take the value in megabits per second — for example 7.5 Mbps.
- Multiply by 0.001 (the number of gigabits per second in one megabit per second).
- 7.5 × 0.001 = 0.0075 Gbps.
Shortcut: the factor is a power of ten, so just move the decimal point 3 places to the left.

The units
1,000,000 bits per second.
Used for: Broadband and mobile speeds.
1,000,000,000 bits per second.
Used for: Fibre, Ethernet and USB.
Network speeds use decimal prefixes: 1 kbps = 1,000 bits per second and 1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bits per second. Remember 8 bits = 1 byte when comparing with download sizes.
