Panel Item Network Monitor measurement

Hello!
I'm using XFCE 4.8 and I use the default network monitor in my panel!
Is there some way to change the measurement from kilo bit to kilo byte per second?

thanks in advance!

Isn't it already in kilobytes (kibibytes)? Anyways, there is a bug report regarding the ability to change this measurement display.

What's a "kibibit" - is that a designation for 1000 bits, as opposed to "kilobit" (which would be 1024 bits?)? I assume that whatever it is, a "kibibyte" is the same number, only of bytes?
