Option-Click the Airport Menu for Extra Wireless Info
November 24th, 2009 - 10.6, Mac OS X, Snow Leopard, Tips & Tricks
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. This is Snow Leopard only, if you haven’t upgraded to Snow Leopard yet and your Mac is compatible, it’s highly recommended.
Thanks to reader Jim Thorpe for the tip and screenshot!
