Hello and welcome.

The xfce4-netload-plugin (Network Monitor) and the xcfce4-hardware-monitor plugin (Hardware Monitor) both have the capability to display network throughput. Also available is the xfce4-sysinfo-plugin (System Info). If they are not immediately available on your distro, make sure you install them. For the third one, you may need to download and compile the source code yourself.
