WDS - which station am I connected to?

I have set up a WDS network with the new Airport Express and an old one (obviously I am one of the few people who got it set up Everything is working fine. For several reasons (like e.g. judging how big the range of each individual station is) I would like to know which of the two stations I am connected to at a given time and location. Where can I see this?
(Or have I go the concept wrong, might the computer "mix" the signals of two station for optimal connectivity?)

Applications > Internet Connect
This will tell you which base station you are connected to by its MAC address.
Or
Use the Airport Management Tools to find out which clients (by MAC address) are connected to which base station.
Airport Management Tool on Intel Macs
Download the AirPort 4.1 install from here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport41formacosx.html
1. Open the .dmg if it did not auto-open.
2. Control-click "AirPortSW.pkg" and select "Show Package Contents"
3. Open Contents
4. Drag Archive.pax.gz to the Desktop
5. Double-click Archive.pax.gz to unarchive the file
6. AirPortConfig.framework is in ~/Desktop/Archive/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks
7. Drag AirPortConfig.framework to /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/
You will be asked to authenticate.
Airport Management Tool should work at this point.

Controlling which WDS base station a machine connects to... how?

I'm trying to isolate a problem I've got with a simple WDS configuration. Configuration is:
Airport Extreme (n) Fast Ethernet - main WDS
Airport Extreme (Snow) - relay
Airport Express - remote
Due to configuration, machines that connect to the Express can also 'just see' the other two machines. One of them (a CoreDuo iMac) is reporting very poor Airport signal strength - even when the Airport Express is plugged in within 2 feet of the machine. We think that it is connecting to one of the other base stations - but can't work out how to find out if this is so, and if so how to stop it.
The iMac has recently returned from Applecare having had a new screen installed - is it possible that the airport antenna could have been disconnected as part of this? This might explain problem - but again I can't work out how to test this.
Suggestions anyone?

Airport Extreme (Snow) - relay
I know that you mean round AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) but I want to clarify something.
There is not a snow AEBS. Referring to it that way is confusing because there IS an 802.11b Dual-Ethenret (aka "snow") AirPort base station (ABS). The snow ABS does not do WDS and does not have a USB port.
The iMac has recently returned from Applecare having had a new screen installed - is it possible that the airport antenna could have been disconnected as part of this?
Quite possibly.
There isn't any way to control which base station it connects to BUT you can see which one it is connected to. If the iMac is running OS 10.5, hold down the OPTION key while selecting the network name on the AirPort menu. You will see the MAC address of the base station which the iMac is connected to.

I have an eMac which I want to connect to my home wireless network. My router is D-Link-601 tech 802.11n. My emac is wireless ready but does not contain an airport card. Do I need a card and an airport station? What else?

You need the Airport card OR Airport Express but not both. Considering the age of your machine, I recommend Airport Express as you will find other uses for it whenever you replace the eMac.
To set up the AE, you do need OSX 10.4 or higher.

Apple TV as WDS relay station?

We have a mixed Airport Extreme 802.11g/gigabit Ethernet LAN at our house. Because our widescreen TV is at the other end of the house, well out of the effective range of the Airport LAN, and our main iTunes "server" Mac is connected by gigE, I connected the Apple TV by wire as well. All that introduction is for what I want to do: Since the Apple TV's Airport interface is not being used, why can't I make it a WDS relay station for the Airport network? That would really extend our wireless LAN. I know you can do this with an Airport-equipped Mac that's connected by Ethernet...

I'm afraid the tv can't be used in that capacity.

This Airport Extreme base station can't connect to iCloud

I have a Airport Extreme base station (model A1408) running firmware 7.6.4.
In troubleshooting a Back to My Mac issue, I noticed that the configuration page for the base station had a yellow dot next to my apple id in the "Back to My Mac" section of the "Base Station" tab, with words underneath that say, "This Airport Extreme base station can't connect to iCloud".
When I delete the id and re-enter it, the dot goes green and no errors are generated (the id/password tokens are accepted). Then, I push "Update", and after the base station comes back, the light is yellow again. (To be clear, the dot next to the apple id is yellow, not the base station status light, which is always green.)
I'm connected to Xfinity Cable Internet service via a Motorola SB6141.
Everything iCloud related works for my various iOS and MacOS devices except Back to My Mac.
Can anyone point me to a solution? I've already been through Apple's troubleshooting and support docs related to Back to My Mac.
Thanks in advance!

NEVER MIND!
After reverting to the old LinkSys router, I left the AEBS powered up all night. This morning, I tried once again and the AEBS mysteriously started working with my laptop after reconnecting and power-cycling the cable modem. Go figure!
Unfortunately, the iMac in another room doesn't seem to be able to join the new network, but I'll close this thread and perhaps open a new one after doing some more trouble-shooting.
Thanks for your comments and suggestions.

I would like to know which apple server dictation connects to so that my proxy server will stop blocking it. Which apple server does it connect too?

I would like to know which apple server dictation connects to so that my proxy server will stop blocking it. Which apple server does it connect too?

I would presume so, but it might be worth your while to experiment and play around with different combinations to see if you can block FaceTime while keeping Game Center open. Good luck!

How to determine Which Database I am Connected to?

hi everyone,
10g
I'm going to drop a database via SQL Plus.
I forgot the command that will show which db I'm connected to. Dont want to delete the wrong database!
Thanks, John

Personally I prefer to use: select name from v$database
to verify what database I am connected to if there is any doubt.
With 10g it is possible to set the sqlpromt to your database name and have it maintained even if you issue a connect statement to another database.

Did anyone ever find an answer to Hugh's question?
I'm just now facing the how-to-connect-iPhone5 (s) to the Wave. Bose will most likely sell me an expensive connector kit, but has anyone found a way to DIY? The Bose guy did say the 5 will not work with the Bose Wave stereo I've got.

How to find out which database I'm connected to

I need to use a pl/sql to determine which database I'm connected to. I'm not using forms so I cannot use a built-in. I need to know for a report I'm building, as the display differs based on the database.
Thanks

In order to consult V$... views a user must have a special role (SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE). This permit to the user to access also all DBA_... views. Such things could not be desired for security.

SQL that shows which client process is connected to which server process

Hi,
I am running database on Linux.
I have many oraclePROD processes (up to 100). These are dedicated server processes, which are opened by several client processes.
I want to know which server process is connected to which client process. I see that v$session gives the session# and client process, but does not give information about the related dedicated server process.
Is there any v$ view that gives this information?
Thank you.

How the broker cluster determine which broker to be connected

Currently,there are four server instances in glassfish a cluster.By default classfish used MQ broker cluster to provide JMS services.The question is when a client use the JMS connection factory to create a connection,what's the policy the brokers cluster used to determine which broker to be connected to?
In MQ's document, it's said that the connection was create use the imqAddressListBehavior and imqAddressList properties.
As a fact,I found that the connection distribution is 350/200/50/200(broker3,broker4,broker1,broker2);
the imqAddressList =broker3,broker4,broker1,broker2
the imqAddressListBehavior= priority
Can anyone tell me what's the policy the brokers cluster to routing the connection?

Hi,
The brokers is started up by glassfish nodeagent process,when i started a nodeagent.All of the brokers are behind the firewall.
can anyone share some document about this subject?
thanks a lots!

BW transferrules; which sourcesystem am i connected to

Hi experts,
we now have two 0bpartner sourcesystems.
In the transferrule for one of those i want to find out which sourcesystem it is connected to.
Of course we can enhance the extractor in the source system but we prefer not to do that.
Is there any system field i can use in the ABAP?
Any other hint?
Marco

Hi Marco
Please check the below threads.
0LOGSYS Transformation Routine
ABAP CODE TO POPULATE LOGICAL SOURCE SYSTEM
You can use 0SOURCESYSTEM /0LOGSYS to read the source system id and after compounding your 0BPARTNER with 0SOURCESYSTEM.
During transformation system should read soursystem id maintained in ..
RSA1 --> Tools --> Assignment of Source system ID..
I guess in this case Transformation rule would be "Initial" for 0sourcesystem. ( For BI 7 flows)

I want to understand in which db I'm connected in bqy file

I want to understand in which db I'm connected in bqy file, where I find the information, I'm not interesting the name of oce file, I want to know the name of the database, and if I use multiple connection, where this query is connected or this one thank you massimo

Dear Barry,
Maybe, I can explain you what I want:
When I create 5 tabels on 2 pages, each tabel will have their own row numbers. When I'm working on page 2 and on row 40 for ex, it is very difficult to see which is row 40 of 1st tabel on page 1.
When I put these 5 tabels in 1 big tabel, you won't have this problem, but than I can not name my tabels.
So, I thought maybe I can link for ex, all row 40 in all 5 tabels
