- Simple floating window sowing up and down rates plus a lot of options, which I haven't fully explored yet - but which looks well thought out! The big plus for me - no installation required, woohoo. Run it from thumb drive or wherever. Love it :) Norton • Jul 2018 • 1 agrees and 0 disagrees

i've been using this for years, and it's one of those i install first. however, lately, i've been switching between LAN and wifi and it's getting bothersome to have to keep on switching the configuration every time. i wanted to ask the developer if he would consider maybe updating the app to include an "all network connection" option, so the graph would work regardless if i'm using wifi or LAN, but the email address provided rejected my email, it no longer was active. the website is also empty except for the developer's picture and short description. the app seems to have been discontinued already, such a pity, really.

You can use this software @ Windows 10 using the compatibility mode for setup. It works automatically for me. If not just use the mode for Win 8 or 7.
