systemDashboard - Wireless meter

The third in the systemDashboard series, this Widget monitors your wireless connection, and returns it as both a percentage and as a series of concentric rings that dim and change color as your signal strengthens and weakens. Inspired by the dashboards of fancy sports cars.

Mugros: I dont know where that 20% is coming from for you. I load it on my end, and my cpu usage barely jumps up at all.

I can't recommend this widget. Its eats about 20% of my CPU time (A64 3200+) and the only job it has do to is diplaying the signal strength. That's bad. I tried other signal indicators and they consume almost no CPU time like all my other widgets.

Shizke: that error was fixed a while back. make sure you are using the newest version.

nvrmor: IIRC, the widgets tooltip should already tell you the network you are connected to. I cant change the "Wireless monitor" text to read something different, as that is an image, since there is no way to "bend" text in K

love this series look. anyway to add the network name to this? instead of showing the "wireless signal" label maybe? i already know its a wireless signal, what i need to know is what network i am currently on. other widgets have it, seems odd this doesnt. would rather use this cause of the looks and the whole series.
