Mbit and MBps are different. Bit vs Byte. 8Mbit = 1 MBps. So a 20mbit connection gets about 2.5mbps.

Are you friggin serious. I just went on speedtest and I'm currently at 2.16 Mbps. I would LOVE to have 20 mb/s without a cap. I still have to say, caps just sound ridiculously stupid. Why get fast internet if you can't do anything with it?

Also, POLL!
Slow = 20mbit?
Fast = 100mbit?
Cap = whatever is standard for Aus? Look at opty's post above

Well I didn't have any cap with 3G until I upgraded to a 4G LTE mobile plan. Now I only have 7GB/month, data transmission is then limited to 128Kbps over this limit, unless I unlock it by paying like $20. I also watch GSL in suburban train etc, and it looks like 7GB is about the amount I would use on my mobile if I didn't try to use wifi as much as possible. I've never heard of any limit for my home internet plan though.
Edit: to be fair Japan is really expensive for internet access. At least compared to France where I'm from. And french providers have more service included (support is much worse but well).

Mbit and MBps are different. Bit vs Byte. 8Mbit = 1 MBps. So a 20mbit connection gets about 2.5mbps.
If I'm not mistaken, Speedtest uses Mbits https://support.speedtest.net/entries/21057567-what-do-mbps-and-kbps-mean
