# Monitoring wireless clients on your network

You can monitor the quality of the wireless signal, the noise, and the data packet transmissions over time for all of the clients connected to your base station.

This can help you solve problems with the network, or problems with individual clients connected to the network.

## To monitor wireless clients:

1. Open AirPort Utility, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X, and in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a Windows computer.

2. Select the wireless device you’re setting up, and then click Manual Setup. Enter the password if necessary.

3. Click Advanced in the toolbar, and then click Logging & Statistics.

4. Click "Logs and Statistics," and then click Wireless Clients. You can monitor the signal, noise, and data rate of wireless clients on your network.

If you have more than one base station or Time Capsule in your network, wireless clients might be monitored by multiple devices.
