Another problem -
On my laptop I get a "No NetworkAdapter detected!" message. I ran the wmi_test.vbs script I found buried in the distro and it displays a window with "--- Searching for: Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration" and A OK button. Clicking on the OK button displays a "Windows Script Host" window with the following -
Script: <path to script>
Line: 8
Char: 1
Error: 0x80041010
Code: 80041010
Source: (null)
I have two active network interfaces on my laptop...

The "Update Speed" seems to become a multiplier for the Percentage. Everything worked well with a 1 update/sec and "Autodetect Bandwidth" off. I then change the Update Speed to the second mark (2 per second?) and I see the percentages double; ie 155% & 220%...

Very nice widget, aside from the above.

Great Job! What do you think about adding SNMP to monitor gateway routers? A lot of routers are able to deliver bandwith stats via this protocol. I am sure the most of us are running more than one host with internet connectivity. I cant find a widgets able to do that. You would be the first. "MRTG/PRTG transformed into a Widget" Cooooool!

Could you add an aggregation feature that logs how much data has been up/downloaded for a specified period like netstat does? That would be cool. Thanks :).

awsome widget! very cool!
