Currently, I am using the ILLUSTRO skin and using the Network Skin tab but it shows the Upload and Download speeds in B/s and there is some explanation about converting using Google but I think that is just so I can convert my speed when i want to know what it means on the meter... I want to know if it is possible to change the Skins reading that is shown from B/s to Mbps which is what our internet is in here in the US and I would love some help if it is possible to change this or if someone knows a Better Skin to use for a Network measure tool to show me what my internet speeds are at that would be great too.. I would also be open to other important Skin tools I could check out but mainly I need to figure out how to get an Internet Network Speed app on my desktop background to give me a reading in GB if possible. Thanks for your help and let me know what you need for info besides what I am posting below for what the settings say.
