Span your outbound traffic and look for IPs with a TTL that is off by one.

depending on if the device is being used as layer3 and how his

if it is in the budget, the cisco wlc's will handle this task nicely,
however, i am unsure of the technical "licensing" on upgrading from
autonomous ap's to lwaps.
