My lines in my conky. Note: personal conky, not a preinstalled one.

Code: Select all

${color Tan1}Wlan0 down${goto 105}${color}${downspeedgraph wlan0 10,70 00ff00 00ff00 11962891} ${downspeed wlan0}
${color Tan1}Wlan0 up${goto 105}${color}${upspeedgraph wlan0 10,70 ff0000 ff0000 9765625} ${color}${upspeed wlan0}

OP's issue is not with conky but the display on his network manager panel applet showing his connection details.

Imho you need to report it in KDE forums. A simple search shows it's a known bug since a long time. Some say it shows 0 , some say not zero but wrong values, and some say you need to keep it open for some time to see the correct values etc... Though these are not exactly the same, i.e.

This is what I can find online regarding your issue. Possibly?

I guess this has still not been fixed as of May 2023. I'm running KDE/Plasma under Ubuntu 22.04 in a Parallels VM and the Info Center sees my network connection just fine but the System Monitor and the Network Speed widget think there is no network connection. It appears that it has to do with the switch to Netplan from the old networking protocol. The ethernet interface under the older protocol is eth0; just Netplan it is enp0s3. I also have a Parallels VM running Kali Linux, which still uses the older network protocol with network interface eth0 and the System Monitor and Network Speed widget see it with no problem.



The Netspeed Widget has been working fine here, right up until the latest update. For some reason, ksysguard was removed with the latest update, which is a dependency the Netspeed Widget needs in order to function.

You need to install ksysguard again, after that the widget should run fine:

Code: Select all

sudo apt install ksysguard
