Straight to the main part... Network Monitor's graph on panel doesn't seem useful. If you haven't been using much bandwidth recently, it can jump up to maximal values even if you use 1% of your bandwidth.

What I suggest is a setting "internet speed (bandwidth)", so graph scale is not based on recent internet usage, but on what your internet connection can actually do.

If this is already implemented somewhere, please tell me what to do to activate such functionality.

Okay, I ended up making my own widget for that... It turned out to be a success, even though the documentation could be better...

Anyway, it was fun: Python and Qt are very nice, and now I also know the basics of making Plasmoids! ...And, well, the first programming for Linux experience...


I marked the topic as solved, however, such functionality would be nice as a setting for the KDE's default widget.
