I have a problem with network traffic monitor. When I'm downloading at 200 kb/s it shows as about 100 kb/s on my network monitor. same goes for my outbound. When I'm uploading at say 50kb/s it shows as 25kb/s.

I don't know what is wrong. Can somebody help me?

I don't know what Rainmeter version you are using or your operating system. You might try adding "Interface=0" after "Measure= ". For example:

Measure=NetIn
Interface=0

Measure=NetOut
Interface=0

I am running with Vista 64-bit, Rainmeter 1.2 64-bit. Interface 0 is supposed to include all interfaces (I think), which didn't work properly prior to version 1.2. Prior to version 1.2, I had to try different interface numbers. It turned out to be Interface 7 for me.
