Try berkeley ns2 at ftp.ee.lbl.gov. AFAIK, it isn't nearly as pretty
as OPNET, but it's been around longer and you can reference your work
in ns2 in a paper and be taken seriously. =)

Besides, OPNET is a pain in the backside to modify. About two years
ago a friend and I tried to modify one of the modules so that it would
generate bursty ethernet traffic. Ugh... Not fun.
