If you have a windows 7 laptop you can go to where you are in range of the device, go to Control panel, network and view network infrastructure. It will list any AP's and you can right click and say view web page. This will then give you the address. I'm sure there's a better way.but this would work J From: tech-geeks-boun...@tech-geeks.org [mailto:tech-geeks-boun...@tech-geeks.org] On Behalf Of John Pearson Sent: Tuesday, October 19, 2010 10:52 AM To: tech-geeks@tech-geeks.org Subject: [tech-geeks] IP Where Are You? Hi, Today I embarked on a project to map all of our access points in our district. Over time, I have lost track of their a) location, and b) IP addresses. I have the locations figured out now, but I am struggling with finding the IP addresses of these AP's. I have the MAC address of the AP's and have tried arp -a to match an IP, but so far, those MACs are not showing in the list. I have checked the DHCP to see if any show up there, and have tried many http://192.168.x.x combinations just trying to see if it brings up the authentication window. I have run Solar Winds to find all active IP addresses. I have run AngyIP also to find the IP's being used. I am using a nice tool to see the AP's on my laptop, but it just shows channel, MAC, Privacy, Signal Strength, SSID, but no IP address. All AP's are Linksys WAP54G (Various versions). What am I missing? I feel I am going down the wrong road here and am hoping for a better solution to find those IP addresses. Any help is greatly appreciated. Mr. John E.
