That is interesting. I'm trying to think how the latency charts could be misconstrued, since a Y-axis on the right isn't the norm - I don't think it's hard to understand, but just different.
The display as-is clearly shows that the download is badly bloated, but the upload is fine. That's the important message for most people at home. But as a researcher, you want to understand the details of the upload. So having different scales would help you see better into the problem. * If the download and upload values are substantially similar, the left and right Y-axis scales should be the same, so there wouldn't be confusion * If the values are substantially different (as in this screen shot), the pink and yellow backgrounds (on the left) and the lack of them on the right would provide a solid cue that there is something different going on between the two charts. * On the other hand, the report already shows different Y-axis values for the down/upload speeds, so the latency charts could mimic the speeds... Other thoughts?
