it's because the internet connection is stated in MegaBITS and the download speeds are in MegaBYTES.
There are 8 bits in a byte.

One is Mb, the other is MB, that capital B is actually signifying something.

- and 24 divided by 8 is 3, 24Mbps = 3MBps

This is the normal things that internet speed start in Megabits That is why the internet speed is much faster.
And downloading speed starts in Megabytes That is why the download speed is slow in compare of normal internet speed.
You should see your plan again. Actually I am using 5 MBPS internet speed and 1 MBPS download speed, It means it depend on your internet plan....
