Network Monitor Not accurate
Network Monitor is not showing how much internet each device is using accurately. I would do a speed test or watch a 4k video on my pc and it says my pc is using 0.002 download which has to be wrong....
I’m experiencing the same issue with my XR450 that I just purchased.
I tried the system reboot and it seemed to work for about 5mins, but then went back to displaying decimal points as my Mbps speed.
I ran the speed test and my speed is shown as 989Mbps, but when playing COD or streaming it shows 0.25Mbps being used.

- That is about right as gaming barely uses any bandwidth at all.
- I understand that, however I really tried testing this so I played 4K videos on my Desktop, my TV, and my laptop while gaming and streaming music simultaneously. The highest total download speed displayed on the network monitoring was 0.80Mbps being used. Obviously this has to be an error or bug being displayed.
When using speedtest.net, it shows that I have 989Mbps, but the network monitor only shows 120Mbps during that testing window.- That's about right for the conversion between Mbps and MBps but definitely an inconsistency there, thank you.
