I'm new to a Mac. I want to view the wireless networks. Similar to the same thing on XP.

Click on your Airport icon which sits in the top menu. A drop down list will appear with the SSIDs of the networks which are in range along with some other options.

Additionally, you can use a WiFi sniffer to view hidden access points and statistics. The only one I know of that works with 10.6 (Snow Leopard) is AirRadar.

AirRadar - Advanced Wireless Network Scanner

Thanks ... that's cool. I searched all over and never would have thought of that.
