1 Mbit/s
0.001 Gbit/s

Multiply the number of megabits per second by 0.001 to get gigabits per second. How this is calculated

Copy link puts your number after the #, which browsers never send to a server — but the link itself carries it, so anyone you send it to sees the value. Save keeps the unit pair in this browser only; clear it any time from your saved list.
