Option-Click the Airport Menu for Extra Wireless Info

November 24th, 2009 - 10.6, Mac OS X, Snow Leopard, Tips & Tricks

wireless info airport menu If you Option-Click the Airport Menu you can get extended information about the wireless network you are connected to (and the ones you’re not as well), including Channel information, MAC address of the access point, signal strength, and the transmission rate.
