I'll second what Clayton says...  1000000b/s is 1Mbps

sorry, but you're wrong. 1Mbps in terms of *network communication* is
always 1,000,000 bits, just like 1Kbps is always 1,000 bits.

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.
