AP = Access Point, short for "wireless access point". In your case,
this would be the wireless router that hands out IP addresses to all
your wireless devices. Somewhere in this router's admin interface,
there should be a page/listing/something of all the client wireless
devices that the router knows about, some info about each device, and
what each device's IP address is. I can't give exact directions to this
listing because every wireless router is different. Posting the
make+model might allow someone else to tell you exactly where to go--or
check the router's technical manual, if it has one. If not, comb
through the options in the admin interface until you find it?
