MicroMac · **What is my connect mode? -** 06-12-2009, 07:52 PM

I've been looking through the AirPort preferences pane and the AirPort setup app and I can't seem to find out what mode my Mini is connected in (b, g, n).
Is there a 3rd party app that will report this?
Thanks.

What type of modem do you have?
Chances are it's G.

No, I just installed a Dell 1505 card I should be connecting in n mode, just wanted to verify.

If you run the Network Utility it will mention the link speed in there.

But this is only really good to tell you if it recognizes the N speed at all.....it doesnt tell you if you are connecting at a lower speed.
