Bandwidth Transfer Mathematics
The theoretical download duration is given by:
\text{Time (seconds)} = \frac{\text{File Size (Megabits)}}{\text{Bandwidth (Mbps)}} \times (1 + \text{Overhead})
Where $1\text{ Byte} = 8\text{ bits}$. An $8\%$ overhead accounts for TCP acknowledgments, packet loss retransmissions, and TLS cryptographic encapsulations.
