I am looking for a Macintosh based utility.
Mac OS X? or OS 9?

Not sure about OS9, but OS X you should be able to find a Linux based Packed Sniffer.

If you are using a broadband router you should be able to access it with just a web browser, to view DHCP leases
I'm using OS X. I can see the IP's listed in the DHCP Client List. I would like to have a utility however to monitor the bandwidth usage and time online, etc. Something user friendly.
I think the utility question to monitor bandwidth usage, time online, etc. is a seperate question.  The original question was how to see them.
