What does “Refresh rate: 115 seconds over 28.8 k.b.p.s mean?
The refresh rate refers to your computer’s ability to re-read an item over the internet (by pressing the “Refresh” button of your browser ) and display it on your computer’s monitor. This depends entirely on what kind of computer you have in addition to what type of connection you use on the internet. The 115 seconds means one minute and 55 seconds will elapse on a 28.8 kilobits per second (k.b.p.s.) connection to your internet service provider. Naturally, if you have a faster connection, the refresh rate will decrease in time. A 56 k.b.p.s. connection will usually mean that one-half the time will elapse or roughly 57 seconds before the screen will refresh with the data you want to display.
