First of all, thanks for your application which is a nice OSS alternative to Fing!
Thank you :)
Would you have any idea on how to solve this? blush
Ning uses (among other, faster techniques) a normal ICMP ping to find out what devices are online.
I could see two reasons for issues with the devices:
If you don't mind, could you try to ping the missing devices manually?
For example, you could run ping 192.168.2.177
using the termux app.
Hey @csicar
Sorry for the delay.
Indeed, I tried to ping my MacBook with the command ping 192.168.2.177
and I got 100% packet loss.
Then I tried from a Windows computer to ping the MacBook and same result...
It seems that some devices are not "pingable".
I guess that FIng uses other techniques to detect devices.
Does your MacBook have an open port? In that case #100 might solve this as well.
Also: Ning now a custom mDNS / bonjour scanner to find devices independent of ping requests. This might be hard to test for you, but do you know if you MacBook responds to mDNS requests?
I can confirm the same issue.
Also I have a comparison with Fing here: In the example here we see that a HP Pavillion Laptop is missing in the list in Ning. Also the IP Adress 192...1 is revealed as Fritzbox 7590 in Fing while it is shown but not detected in Ning. For the cellphones in the Network Ning shows the vendor while Fing shows the exact device.
Hey,
First of all, thanks for your application which is a nice OSS alternative to Fing!
Unfortunately, comparing the results of both applications, I remarked that some of my devices are missing when using Ning, comparing to Fing.

Would you have any idea on how to solve this? 😊
If I can provide more details, please do not hesitate.
