Station diagnostics

Each client on an AP can be studied individually by looking at the station diagnostic

information:

1. Click Monitor > Diagnostics > Station.

2. Provide a MAC address for the client. One way to determine the client MAC

address on Windows XP is to open the Command Prompt by clicking Programs >

Accessories > Command Prompt and then entering the command ipconfig /all -

this gives you physical addresses for the wireless connections.

3. Click Start Diagnostics in the upper right corner of the screen.
