sure is... so airport extreme is 54 mb/s.
54mb / 8 = 6.75 KiloBytes/second?

why not just drop all the old modem specifications, no more bits, baud, megabits... Just have it standard in kilobytes.
Because modems would look slower, DUH. Who would never buy a 9 KB/s modem :b
 
Thanks for adding it!
ISDN is, technically, a dial-up connection, since it is not 'instant on' like DSL or Cable is. Still, it seems like it is, because it only takes about a second to dial.

No. 54Mbit = 55296Kbit/s
Mbit to Kbit = Mbit * 1024
Kbit to KByte = Kbit / 8

So, Airport Extreme is 6912KBytes per second = 6.75 MegaBytes per second(6912/1024)
 
Just to compare,
Ethernet 10T is 10Mbit/s or 1.2 MB/s
Ethernet 100T is 100Mbit/s or 12 MB/s
GigabitEthernet is 1000Mbit/s or 120 MB/s
And this is shared over the network (unless is it managed with switches, gateways and routers).
