You too are confusing nomenclature. Broadband and DUN are rated at bits per
second.
Thus Cable and FiOS are rated at 1.5Mb/s ~ 50Mb/s [188KB/s ~ 6.25MB/s]
Cellular broadband rates are not given, they use terminology such as 3G and 4G.
{ Actually FiOS is variably rated for symettrical and assymetrical and can go
higher than
50Mb/s. It is just a matter of what you want to pay for. }
