Click to expand... Depending on the device....if its a Windows device it will show you the connection speed, channel, frequency, ect in the connection properties of whatever wireless client you are running on the machine. It varies depending on what WIFI hardware is built into the machine and if you are using Windows to manage your WIFI connections or a 3rd party utility from the hardware manufacturer of the WIFI device. For me the easiest way to get an "at a glance" view of the connected clients and their speeds is by looking at the web interface of the router itself.
