NeoTrace 2.12a Network Problems! No Problem! Douglas Smith
It's 4:30 in the afternoon and your users are calling because the Internet has slowed down to a crawl. It's hot and you are sweating like no tomorrow, the boss is due in from a long trip in 30 minutes and he will just crawl up one side of you and down the other if it turns out the problems are internal and not some place further down the line. You bring up a DOS window and type ping, or tracert to try and locate the problem.
While you wait for things to happen and to get word back from your ping, you keep saying to yourself that this will not really give you what you want. If only you had a graphical look at each node, along with maybe a report that you can produce to show everyone that the problem is 500 miles down line somewhere. Are you really asking for a miracle or some pipe dream? Well, don’t fret; NeoWorks Inc. has just the tool that you're looking for--NeoTrace 2.12a.
NeoTrace is a high-speed graphical trace route with integrated whois and ping. It is extremely fast, simple to use and returns a wealth of information. It's very popular for detecting network problems and finding net information, and is also a great tool for Spam hunters. Its power is enhanced by a really nice, easy-to-use interface for a graphical look at the entire network from the tracing machine out to the final network destination. View the trace route via a map scheme, nodes, list, or Graph.
