Uhh this is exactly what GP is saying? If you went to the butcher, asked for 1lb of meat, they weighed it at 0.97lbs and still charged you for 1lb, you'd be ups

The difference between 1,000mbps and 970mbps can (partially) be explained by protocol overheads.
- 8n4vidtmkvmk 2y agoI wasn't disagreeing with the parent poster. I was actually just surprised that my speed is as close as it is to the advertised speed. Normally 1 Gbps means something more like 600 Mbps. There's a difference here though. The ISP isn't being nefarious if you don't get the advertised speed because they can't control anything outside of their network. The butcher, OTOH, presumably knows how to read a scale and can charge the appropriate price.
