I'd just like to see who is connecting to my computers Access Point wifi.
I'm sharing Internet from Ethernet to wifi with a password, etc.

Strictly speaking, it's not ad hoc, it's an Access Point.– TetsujinDec 11, 2014 at 19:16

Run the following to list all connections on your Mac through all interfaces.
arp -a
To limit to a single interface, use:
arp -a -i en1

thanks! this is a cool command. It just displays MAC addresses though, correct? I guess I was hoping for a GUI that could display device names or something more robust, like an admin tool.– pinheadDec 11, 2014 at 19:35

@pinhead It shows IP addresses and hostnames too, but yes, there's no 'admin tool' of such.– grg ♦Dec 11, 2014 at 19:36
