What do the 2 speeds mean in the Online Backup dashboard?

    In a Managed Backup client, there are two speeds listed. One is on the same line as elapsed time and the other is on the same line as time left.
    The top one is usually smaller/slower than the bottom one. What do the two speeds indicate?

    The main reason I ask is that I have capped my bandwidth during work hours to 1 mbps on one client. It seems like the top line (which hovers between 750k and 1 mbps) reflects that speed. The bandwidth on the lower line hovers around 6-8 mbps in the case of this client.

    That's an approximate speed in megabytes and megabits respectively. Bandwidth limit is presented in kilobytes.

    I'm not sure if I follow you.

    Why are there 2 numbers? What does each stat represent?

    Ok. I understand, now. It's the same stat just as bytes/bits. Just as some feedback, this seems really unnecessary. It's just confusing to look at until you realize what the abbreviations mean.

    Thanks for the feedback. Some people just preferred to see Mbits instead of Mbytes, so we put both on the progress bar, that's pretty much it.
