[feature request] a real network monitor widget which shows current download/upload speed
the network monitor widget in lxqt panel only shows downloaded and uploaded data quantity.no information about speed

Network Monitor may even be a duplicate when System Statistics works with network.
I think it is not completely the same, e. g. tooltip may require a mouse hover event? Or perhaps you meant this as permanent showing and updating this every now and then.
It reminds me a bit of what you can do via conky.
I meant something like a tooltip but, probably, persistent and continuously updated as long as the cursor is over the widget. Numbers take extra space -- especially two of them (download + upload) -- and are a mess on (thin) vertical panels.
It reminds me a bit of what you can do via conky.
I do lots of such things with conky and leave the panel for graphs, icons and clock. Conky can have audio/visual alarms when, just as one example, hard temp is too high for a long time, and it provides so many other possibilities...
still waiting this feature
PRs will be accepted for review. None has been made so far.
if any one wants there is a sidebar coreaction which has download/upload speed indicator. and its in qt.

@librewish - you are so cool - but it doesn't really solve the problem that this feature is not implemented in LXQt - and imho should not implemented, because it says nothing.
