Hi.

Please don't jump to my neck for asking this 😁.
I know its a sensible topic and that it has been discussed many times (I searched before posting).

What I want to know about this meter located on Network Map/System Status, is not if we can select a fixed measure unit (which would be great btw), but if the scale can be selected anyhow, so that it reflects the actual percentage of our ISP provided speeds.

ie: 59MB is not 50% of my internet DL, nor 3MB is 30% of my upload speed

Sorry if it has been asked before or if I'm just delirious 🙏

If QoS is enabled, it will use your upload and download settings as the maximums, otherwise it starts with 100 MB and grows from there.
 
Thanks for your wisdom Dave.
I have no QoS enabled, so I have that growing 100MB scale.
In my uploaded pic, DL seems to have an 100MB scale, but UL seem to be set at 9/10 though.

Cheers and thanks once again.
 
Just remember to multiply those numbers by 8 to convert from Bytes to Bits for comparison with ISP bandwidth. I really never looked at those graphs because I don't think about my bandwidth utilization in terms of megabytes.
 
Thanks Dave.

Thats exactly why I would like to have an actual % of bandwith, so to avoid the "x8" done mentally 😅
What I meant in previous post is that according to my pic, DL bar seems to have indeed a 100MB scale, but UL seems to be like 10MB (so they aren't both set at 100MB as initial scale).

Thanks once again.
