Network Statistics

Show your live connection speed and how much you have moved.

Network Statistics reports your current network throughput in the chatbox β€” download and upload rates, peaks, totals, and how much of your connection you are actually using.

What do I need?

  1. The πŸ“Ά Network Statistics permission, which MagicChatbox asks for when you enable the integration.
  2. Nothing else β€” the counters are read locally from your network adapter.

Important

This integration needs the πŸ“Ά Network Statistics permission. Decline it and the integration switches itself back off. You can grant it later under Options β†’ Privacy.



Right now

  1. Show how fast you are downloading.
  2. Show how fast you are uploading.


Best and total since the app started

  • These reset every time MagicChatbox restarts β€” they are a session record, not a monthly data counter.

  1. Show your fastest download so far.
  2. Show your fastest upload so far.
  3. Show how much you have downloaded in total.
  4. Show how much you have uploaded in total.


How busy your connection is

  1. Show how much of your connection is in use, as a percentage.
  2. Compare against the adapter's rated speed instead β€” measure that percentage against the adapter's reported link speed rather than against the fastest rate you have actually reached.

Note

A gigabit adapter reports 1000 Mbps no matter what your actual internet connection provides. On a 100 Mbps line that makes the percentage look permanently tiny. Leave the second setting off and the percentage is measured against what you have really achieved, which is usually the more meaningful number.



How it is written

  1. Small raised labels β€” α΅ˆα΅’Κ·βΏ instead of Down. On by default.

Tip

Each value you add costs characters, and network figures are wide β€” ↓ 842 Mbps is eleven of your 144 before any label. Turning on all six is usually enough to push another integration out of the line entirely.
