** IMPORTANT NOTE - PLEASE READ THIS **
PeakHour requires SNMP or UPnP to be supported on enabled in order to monitor a device. We have created the PeakHour Compatibility Check tool to help you determine if your device(s) work with PeakHour. Grab it from the Mac AppStore (it's free) before purchasing if you are unsure.
PLEASE if you are having problems with PeakHour interacting with your router, contact us so that we can assist you. We have a growing troubleshooting FAQ and extensive documentation at support.peakhourapp.com and we're always available at [email protected].
Note if you're having trouble and choose to leave a review rather than get in contact with us directly, we cannot help you as AppStore reviews are anonymous.
Can some one explain what this does .. does it basically get your router to route traffic to you mac so this software can analyst it? Therefore your mac needs to run all the time to record / log this data? this would add lag to gaming?
