weird, i use that all the time, it's always somewhat accurate. it has a
knack for not averaging the data it acquired per second, but rather
shows some extreme, but this is usually not THAT extreme, it just
results in a zigzagging graph ranging between 28 and 34, instead of
stable on 33.

attached to this message, is my network tab in system monitor, save it
somewhere, and do an "import tab from file", and see if mine is
accurate, maybe something is misconfigured in your end?
