I have some strange behavior. on win11 pc. If I disable the firewall netscan works fine. If I enable the firewall netscan reports offline but ping works fine. (activated the icmp rules) So it must be a setting in the firewall. Any ideas what setting? I did all the icmp rules

The app can't use ping as that requires permissions that are not available to an app. All I can suggest is try and find a port that is in use by the pc and use that in the app.

Thx for reply, but no luck.

Solved it by pinging from Home Assistant and then use the ha integration.
