Oops and thanks. I don't do much with Mac's and Airports and never noticed. Here's the associated MIB file: <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120227> Any SNMP based monitoring program or MIB browser should work to get traffic and connection data out of the router. That will tell where the traffic is coming from, but will not show much about content or where it's landing on the hard disk. Identifying the source is often useful for identifying the content. -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@cruzio.com 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558
