Sorry, but I just want to verify, you do know those byte values are wrong don't you?
1MB is 1024 KB which is 1048576 Bytes, which is 8388608 bits. Gb->Mb->Kb always factors of 1024 different. There are 8 bits in a byte. 1Mbps (bits per second, the standard measurement for most telcommunications speeds) 1Mbps is capable of sending 1024kbps, which is 1048576 bits per second. 128k is actually 131072 bits per second 16k is 16384 bits per second. Rounded values are however good as they leave some space for oversubscription / link control / protocol overhead. Yeah, I couldn't recommend running a server on 16kbps up.
