See that it is in latest, which should be Beta 4.17

-Initializing the Network: It uses classes like NetworkedMultiplayerENet that have been changed.

I'd like to bump this issue since the page is terribly broken. It suggests using a class that doesn't exist and there's no path forward for people previously using ENetMultiplayerPeer in 3.5. ENetMultiplayerPeer is also completely different and I assume it's no longer supposed to even be around in 4.0. If I knew a path forward (which APIs I can call), I'd be glad to contribute here, but I'm just as lost as the current documentation.

You may find the article Multiplayer in Godot 4.0: ENet wrappers, WebRTC helpful. That entire series of blog posts (except for the 4th one) contain some good information about the changes

Closing as duplicate of https://github.com/godotengine/godot-docs/issues/5755 and https://github.com/godotengine/godot-docs/issues/5754

FYI, the multiplayer docs are in the process of being reworked. Until then, have a look at the Bomberman and TPS demos to see how the new multiplayer features in Godot 4.0 can be used.

This is very important. I really wish that the multiplayer docs were current ... and if they are, I would like to know

Oh it was closed as completed ... so I guess that the checkbox on https://github.com/godotengine/godot-docs/issues/5121 should be marked...
