The Wifi network here consists of a Router and a Repeater for it.

Assume I am sitting with my notebook in the about mid between them.

How can I find out if the computer is currently connected to Router or to Repeater?
...without physically touching the devices (e.g. disabling the repeater)?

Solution
The only potential way would be to run the command
netsh wlan show network mode=bssid and compare the BSSID MAC address to the router or repeater to ID which you're connected to.

Ok, thank you.
....and how do I find out (from cmdline) the BSSID MAC address of the Router and the one of the Repeater?
 


With the command from my previous reply or look on the devices
