Softare to test/display network

Software to test/display network

I am looking for a software product to visually present, adjust configuration, and perfomance test my network.

So far I aware of
- Network Magic 4
- Home Net Manager 3.05

Intersting products but not quite tehre. Both detecd my hardwired router and PCs. Neither detected my wireless router.

Anyone know of others?

I know people like the command line iperf and Qcheck, but I found them frustrating to use for the occassional user.

If you are referring to the wireless router that you converted to an Access Point, probably none of the products will detect it because you aren't using it normally.

Network Magic is sort of the defacto standard for home networks. In general, management applications (which include network mapping) are separate from performance testing.
