Issue Summary

This issue is related to #228, focusing specifically on the network portion with some differences.

Problem Description

When users experience slow syncing or intermittent plotting, effective troubleshooting requires the following information:

  • Port Forwarding: Are the user's ports properly forwarded?
  • Peer Count: How many peers are connected?
  • Connection Status: How many inbound and outbound connections are active?
  • Plotting Dependencies: Is the next sector waiting for data from peers before it can be plotted?
  • Bandwidth Usage: How much bandwidth is being used for sending and receiving?

Previous Context

In the original issue, there was a summary tab that included a network status panel, as shown here:

Proposal

Introduce a traffic light indicator as a quick visual representation of network health:

  • Red: No connections to peers.
  • Yellow: Some peers are connected, but ports are not forwarded.
  • Green: All systems functional with appropriate peer connections and forwarded ports.

Additional features could include:

  • A progress bar to indicate the status of data downloads required for the next sector.
  • Numeric indicators for the number of peers and active connections.

Tooltips

Tooltips can provide more detailed descriptions:

  • Traffic light:
  1. Green: "All systems functional."
  2. Yellow: "Port(s) not forwarded."
  3. Red: "No connections to peers."
  • Progress bar: Show real-time inbound and outbound bandwidth usage.

This approach ensures a clear, actionable overview of network health for troubleshooting purposes.
