Hello,

Is there something built into Leopard (10.5.2) that can tell me how many people are connected to my home network and who those people are (i.e. computer name or something)? If it such a capability is not built into Leopard, is there a program that can be recommended?

I have an Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS 802.11n).

Thanks.

Some routers let you look up the local IP addressing, and it'll show you computer name, assigned IP, and sometimes their MAC address.

What router do you have?

Someone said to open up Airport Utiltiy, choose my AEBS, click on Advanced, click on Logs and Statistics and then Wireless Clients. I think that tells me what I need to know.

Yes, that is the correct way to get this information.
