Real Network Monitor

Real Network Monitor is a straightforward application that enables you to keep an eye on the online traffic and find out various details, such as download and upload speed. It mainly addresses power users, such as network administrators.

The setup procedure is fast and simple, without demanding special attention from the user's perspective. Its interface is clean and well-defined, consisting of a single window where the monitoring procedure automatically runs at startup.

You can view a list of received interface IPs, name and time, as well as choose an interface from a drop-down menu to find out its type, speed and MAC address, along with the download, upload, maximum and average download and upload speed, downloaded, uploaded, total downloaded and total uploaded data.

A few settings can be configured for this tool. For instance, you can make it run at Windows startup automatically, display the data format in bps, enable a desktop monitoring module or taskbar speed monitor, as well as disable the traffic database counter.

But you may also clear data, reset the desktop monitor position, access the traffic database, create a blacklist with websites by name or IP address, find out the gateway of your network interface, as well as refresh information in the main window.

We have noticed a low amount of CPU and RAM during the app's runtime. It has a good refresh rate, displays accurate details and works well, without causing the OS to hang, crash or display error notifications. Real Network Monitor bundles some pretty interesting features for monitoring network properties.
