My Internet Packet Monitoring Components can be downloaded from 
http://www.magsys.co.uk/delphi/, and will monitor using either raw 
sockets or winpcap.

You can use my Internet Protocol Helper Component, same URL (or the 
Usermade ICS page), to read the PC IP routing table which will give you 
the IP of the next hops for various destination addresses, since there 
may be multiple gateways.  The ARP table gives you the MAC for the IPs 
you found.  There's a demo program that lists all this stuff.
