Viewing LAN IP addresses?
Is there a way to have the Airport Extreme report the IP addresses it has assigned to devices on the LAN? I cannot find such a capability using AirPort Utility.

Apple decided for you about 3 years ago that you do not need to see the IP addresses of connected devices on your LAN when they introduced the 6.x version of AirPort Utility for Mac and AirPort Utility for iOS.
If you have an iPhone or iPhone handy, download and install Fing. It's free.

Thank you Bob, at least I won't go crazy looking for it anymore. But, to Apple: Shame on you!
Yes you can, in a slightly odd way.
Thank you for your comment. I found another way to get the info I needed so I'm set. However, your solution didn't work for me because there is no popout that lists devices by name, only by MAC address which wasn't helpful. Again, thanks for your helpfulness.

- Open AirPort Utility
- Click on the icon for your Airport Extreme
- In the pop-out area that lists your devices by name, click the one that you want information about (including IP)
Only wireless clients .. nothing connected by ethernet will show.. and the results are inconsistent.. with details not always showing correctly.
I never thought about it but it's possible that my hosts show up by name instead of MAC in the pop out as a result of being reservations in DHCP.
Glad you found another solution.
