I'm able to do this in winbox but I'm not understanding how to do this in the terminal interface.
Anyone have the quick answer?

via ssh...
interface
wireless
print wlan1
and you get something like this
R name="wlan1" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0B:6B:DE:A7:DD arp=enabled
interface-type=Atheros AR5213 mode=ap-bridge
ssid="Internet 10USD/mes 8428 5196" frequency=2412 band=2.4ghz-b/g
scan-list=default antenna-mode=ant-a wds-mode=disabled
wds-default-bridge=none wds-ignore-ssid=no default-authentication=yes
default-forwarding=yes default-ap-tx-limit=0 default-client-tx-limit=0
hide-ssid=no security-profile=default compression=no
frequency=2412
i hope that helped
regards

but that doesn't actually show you which frequency the station is connected on.
You can try /log print.

you can use this command in the terminal..
"interface wireless monitor wlan1" (If you wireless interface is name with wlan 1)
Then you will able to see the information of the wireless link (when associated)...

Is there any update on this?
I'm trying to access the station's current frequency with API, but I don't want to connect to the AP just to get that information.
I don't find anything like readonly variable with operating frequency on the wireless interface or the registration table...
Thanks in advance.
