How to find out who else is on my network?

[ramich]

Hi,

I have wired desktop and wireless laptop connected to Linksys wrt54g. I'm pretty certain I did everything right security wise (WPA, MAC addresses, firewall) but I want to know how to check if anyone else is using my network or if it's secure enough. Is there any way check it on either of my PCs or maybe there's a way to do it online, similar to checking connection speed or IP address? Thanks a lot.

You can see who's on your wireless network by accessing your router's admin application.

A semi-recent thread worth taking a look at: I think my neighbor's stealing my wifi...

Great tip from zazonz, cmd > net view to see who's connected on the subnet.

the thing with net view is that when i do it on wired desktop it doesn't even show my laptop?!? As far as checking router's admininstration (192.168...) I check incoming and outgoing logs and incoming shows nothing at all, while outgoing gives me bunch of IP addresses and honestly I have no idea who they belong to ... any other ideas? maybe i'm looking in the wrong place. thanks

Look at the DHCP client table. That should list everyone.

thanks kegobeer - that seemed to work
