mb is not a thing that exists;<br/>
Mb is megabits: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabit" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabit</a><br/>
MB is megabytes: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabyte" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabyte</a><br/>

What you entered in torrc is currently correct. But since your board has a 100<br/>
Mbit interface anyway, it would be better if you just omit the bandwidth limit<br/>
line entirely.<br/>
<br/>
Also, actually hit anything remotely close to 100 Mbit, you'll absolutely have<br/>
to run two instances of Tor. The Raspberry Pi 3 has 4 CPU cores, but each core<br/>
on its own is not very fast. One copy of Tor only uses about 1 to 1.3 cores,<br/>
so to fully utilize your hardware you need more than one. Ideally you'd set up<br/>
four, but the Tor network will only accept two running from the same IPv4<br/>
address. It appears that these days there's a built-in script for that, see<br/>
"man tor-instance-create".<br/>
