WhatRoute overview
WhatRoute is designed to find the names of all the routers an IP packet passes through on its way from your Mac to a destination host. It also measures the round-trip time from your Mac to the router, thus enabling you to determine slow links--or hops--in the Internet. WhatRoute can also find dead links, such as routers that don't respond.
- A geo-location server is queried and the locations of the hosts discovered in a trace or seen active on the LAN, can be plotted on a low resolution map or viewed in high resolution on Google Earth
- WhatRoute also provides network and port scanning, ping, whois, DNS, and LAN monitoring functions.
- Find the ASN with which a network is registered and the networks with which it peers.
- View network flows

Good application. I can confirm that it's a Mach-O universal binary. I would give it 5 stars if the map always showed up reliably.

You better make a Universal at least before the last Intel Mac Pro is replaced this coming Fall! You sales will fall to floor!
