Does anyone know the formula to convert MRTG results into GB used per month?

Thanks

GB = 10.8 * [number of days in the month] * [average mbps]

So if the amount of average MBPS was listed as K bytes or bytes, what would you do then?

For example, say my average is 730 kb/s what would that be in GBs?

Assuming it's kbits (not kbytes), you'd could use the same formula, just divide kbits by 1000 to get mbps.

If it's kbytes, you'd divide kbytes by 1000 and plug it in for mbps and use the formula. Then you'd need to multiply the result by 8.

Hope that makes sense... and actially works :D

It's bits, I was wrong. Ok, I got the kb/s how about if it were just bits. I suck at math. hehe

Divide bits by 1000 to get kbits.
