Feature request: download & upload speed units #11

It would be nice if user could choose to display download & upload speeds only in MB for instance. Another great functionality would be to be able to set maximum display digits. For example, I would like to display my net usage in 0-99MB interval. Thank you for your consideration.

Thanks for the feature request.

It seems weird to show download and upload speeds in MB/s only. For me, when using a browser or listening to music, download and upload speeds are always below 1MB/s, if the unit is set to MB/s, it will show 0.0x MB/s most of the time. Can you tell me the usage scenario for this feature?

I'm also a little confused about the maximum display digits feature, do you mean to limit the range of the network speed to 0-99 MB/s? If so, what will be displayed when the network speed exceeds 99 MB/s? Is it displayed as 99+ MB/s?
