How do I see what (cabled) link speed I have between base stations?

Hi
I do own one new Airport Extreme base station and one older Airport Extreme (flat one).
Both are capable of 1 Gbit-speed via ethernet cable. I have the new base station as "master" and the old as extender (via cable). How can I ensure that the speed between them are using Gbit and not 100 Mbit?
"use cable xxxx" is not an answer I will settle with, I want to se the numbers somehow, via Airport Utility or 3rd party.
Is this possible?
Very thankful for any help I might get.

There is no info in the airport utility and there is no third party to get you in either..
There is no easy way.. but a gigabit switch plugged in between the two devices would instantly show you the connection speed if it has LED indicators that show gigabit.
Gigabit switches are not that much money to payout now. Particulary if you have some place you might use one.
Otherwise simply do a throughput test.. plug a computer into the main unit by ethernet and plug another computer into the other end.. if you get a file copy speed say 15MB/s you have gigabit. You cannot pass files at greater than about 12MB/s on 100mbit.

    You are assuming that the user has a Mac. Even if he does, this is much more complicated than simply resetting and entering new passwords.
    You also have to know the main administrator password for the Mac
    If the user does not know his base station and wireless passwords, he probably doesn't know his admin password either

    You can view the full purchase history on your account via your computer's iTunes : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases

  • How can I see what I'm actually video recording on iPad Air so that I don't include extra stuff at the borders of the image? It seems to automatically "zoom in" on the screen, but when I export the video, the picture isn't framed well.

    When I try to record a video on the Ipad Air, the screen automatically "zooms in" closer than when I'm taking a photo. So I frame the interview and record it. But when I export it to post it or edit it, I discover that only the screen was zoomed in, the camera wasn't, so I have all this extra stuff around the edges of my frame.
    I don't need to zoom in, but I do need to be able to see what I'm shooting--otherwise, as I'm videotaping, I'm guessing at my picture's framing. But every time I switch from photo to video mode, the screen "zooms in." How can I see what I'm actually recording?
    I've been searching for an answer for this for a while, but I can't find any responses to it! Thanks.

    1) how can I see what is on my icloud and how would I edit the data that is on it?
    2) I am having problems with an app syncing data with pc - how can I fix that? It is mobile noter.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can see what's in iCloud collectively at settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage.... You can only edit the data through the appropriate app (contacts, calendars etc)
    For problems with 3rd party apps, contact the developer.

  • How can I see what is in my iCloud and on iPad and remove some stuff on on iPod mini

    How can I see what is in my iCloud and maybe remove some  from my iPad mini

    You have to sign into your iCloud account at icloud.com from a computer to view your iCloud data.  Also, be careful not to delete data from your phone that is being synced to iCloud or it will delete if from iCloud too.  (For example, if you delete a contact from your phone with Settings>iCloud>Contacts set to On it will remove the contact from iCloud too.)

  • How can I see what has been backed up

    After doing a category BU to my WD Passport Ultra, how can I see what was backed up? The Smartware tells me that what I selected was done.But how and where can I confirm this? Thanksgrowlybear

    Simplest way is to open the drive in Windows Explorer, then in the root you should find a folder WD Smartware.stor. Within that should be a folder for each device you've backed up, and within that a folder for each drive on that device that you've backed up. Within those drive folders you should find the files/folders that have been backed up from that particular drive. You can look through them in the same way that you look through the files/folders on your actual drive itself, and confirm that everything is there that you expect to be.

    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.
