I use NetWorx on a desktop PC and on my Lenovo laptop. On the PC, my graph shows speed in megabytes. However, on my laptop, the graph speed is not shown in megabytes. Is there a fix for this?

NetWorx version being used (both computers): 25.7 Portable build
OS: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro 25H2

It's a little counterintuitive, but you need to change the graph transfer unit to Bytes/s. Then, the dropdown on the Main settings tab will switch to MB/s instead of Mbit/s.

We will combine these two settings into one for simplicity in future releases - thanks for pointing this out.

Yes! That worked, thank you for prompt reply. Now I actually have an understanding of what the Graph says. (tu) Megabytes is burned into my brain!

Glad to hear that! NetWorx app now has a single, unified dropdown for displaying speed: it combines both the transfer rate unit (bytes or bits) and the format (automatic, KB, MB, or GB). This should make things much clearer and avoid the confusion between the two separate controls. This improvement will be included in the next release:
