Using Wireguard VPN shows double values

[afzl-wtu]

I use wireguard vpn on regualar basis. But whenever I turn it on InternetSpeedMonitor shows Double of the actual download upload speed of the connection.

Please fix this issue or add an option to select network interface to monitor in settings.

Hmm you raise a fair point, and I guess this would happen with most of the internet speed check services.
The thing is while using a VPN a part of your internet is being used to communicate with the servers of your service provider. Hence the slow browsing speed. The speed shown is calculated by total bytes of information sent and received by your system. Since this information includes both connection to VPN server and your browsing data, you get the speed shown to be a little higher than the speed with which you browse.

Still I dont think the discrepency should be as high as double, they usully are just a few percent higher. There needs to be some testing if this happens with all VPN providers. Still nothing much I can do in this situation.

Also I don't understand why or how you would like to monitor individual network interfaces.

I can confirm the speed shown is double by actual download upload speed and not only few extra bytes.

If we monitor individual interface it will show the exact amount of traffic on that interface only like my wifi card. But what happening now is it is showing Total speed of My Wifi Card + Vpn virtual interface.
