You can do all this and more with SysStats. There's already a pre-made network speed monitor for you, and I'm sure that you could easily make a bandwidth history graph for yourself.

Here's a Network Traffic meter I made that you can reverse engineer to your tastes.

It does not show "total uploads and downloads". If you mean files, I'm not sure this is possible. If you meant bytes, I experimented with some promising meters, but could not get that to work, although I think it is possible.

It also does not show total possible speed. There is a meter ( in the PHDs...) that shows this, but it just returned a huge number, probably download bits, and I didn't play with it further.

For the most part, once you've looked at a few configs, you should be able to experiment and create one to suit any specific needs!
