If you don't already have a program called "Airport Client Monitor" in your Utilities folder, then download it here.

Sorry, I looked at my Utilities folder and typed too quickly. Next to it should be another utility called Airport Management Utility. Oddly, you monitor from that one, and not the one called Client Monitor.

Open it. On the left, you should be able to find your AEBS (probably in the Rendezvous section). Find it, and then highlight it. Then click on the Monitor tab.
