Inc. EtherPeek 4 for Macintosh EtherPeek 4 for Macintosh, an upgrade to its award-winning network and protocol analyzer, has received a 5 mice product rating from the Macworld magazine editors and Macworld Lab, the industry's leading test center, in Macworld's January 2000 issue. This new, completely rewritten release adds many new enhancements to an already robust feature set. EtherPeek is well-known industry wide for its friendly GUI and powerful troubleshooting and debugging capabilities. This new release has been optimized for the latest Mac Operating Systems as well as taking advantage of the G3 processor and PCI-based Macs.

I can just create a new window with its own filters, and have many independent capture sessions running simultaneously," adds Michael Wise of Wired Magazine, a long-time EtherPeek user. netOctopus 3.5 Based on a new platform independent architecture, Netopia's netOctopus 3.5 enables seamless Windows and Macintosh systems administration.
