I have a Linksys WRT54GX is there a place that I can see what IP addresses the router has given out VIA DHCP or who is connected wirelessly? I have not seen this anywhere looking through the router, anyone know?
Addresses that the user has assigned themselves (static IP's).
If the router was rebooted, addresses that are still in use, but have not yet renewed their DHCP leases.
Additional addresses that have been mnaually assigned to a single MAC address.
If you want to find out what addresses are actually in use, I suggest you use a utility to scan all 254 available IP's and see if they're in use. This is an example of a crude but fast ping scan:
C:\Nmap> nmap -T3 -sP 192.168.1.0/24

Hmmm.... missed a few devices that are set to delay pings and probes.
Also, if you have a mess of Windoze boxes, some with open shares, try NBTSCAN from:
BTW - just tried to install Nmap on a Vista laptop and it failed - NPPtools.dll missing - It appears that this network monitoring API is not available in Vista ?
