I have a wireless G access point in a central location in the house and I have had wireless disabled on my router. My router supports N (2.4 ghz version) so I recently decided to put N up. I want to log into my access point so that I can make sure the channels are not the same but I cannot remember the IP address I assigned it.
Are there any programs that will search the network and find all IP addresses that are used and what device those IP addresses belong to?
Log into the router - it will have a device list with device names and their respective IP addresses, including your wireless G AP.
You want a free tool called Advanced IP Scanner. Download it to your PC and run a scan. It will give you a list of every device with an IP address. For a small network, the scan will take just a couple of minutes. You should be able to figure it out from the info provided. Worst case, you browse to the devices that have HTTP open and figure it out from there.
Alternatively (and not a specific answer to your question), you can use the inSSIDer freeware to examine the wireless signals around you.
When you are connected to your router look at your default route. This should be the ip address of your AP. How you do this will vary based on your OS.
