Apple’s Other Airport Tools

18:12 Sunday, 8 January 2006

There are some useful Airport tools available from Apple that you may not know about. I’ve no idea why these are not included as standard with Airport products. Anyway, they are called the Client Monitor and the Management Utility. The Client Monitor shows a graph of signal to noise and data rate for your wireless signal. This tool could be useful if you are trying out antenna positions. The Management Utility gives an overview of all Airports within range and shows the settings and activity log as a list. This is useful if you are administrating many Airports. Available from the Airport Support page - listed as “Airport Management Tools”
