Depending on who you are on the LAN, ie if its your own LAN at home, or if it's at work, you might be able to log into the router.

I often log onto my router at home at 192.168.1.1 at click on "attached devices" which lists all devices on the LAN.

There is LAN IP checker

Agreed. You can detect the presence of other machines on your LAN several ways. But in the context of der-schutzhund's discussion here, I think that he is looking for something more specific.

Dear guys,

Thanks for reminding me of that old script. I just revised it and have used arp-scan. The time taken for scanning 255 addresses is now about 1 or 2 seconds I have included the arp-scan binary (stripped and UPX'd) in this archive (compiled on Lucid). Because the source is relatively large (some 450k), I am just giving the link:

Have fun,
vovchik

PS. I have noticed a few "timeout" issues with arp-scan and wireless, so you might what to play with the "-t" parameter - increasing it, say, from the default of 100 ms to 300 ms.

chk_ip script and wireless. You can add switch to the arp-scan row:

I tried arp in Slacko:

Dear Flash,

Because arp is missing from my distribution (Lucid), I compiled arp-scan (above attachment). Arp-scan does not have any non-Puppy dependencies and is lightning fast. Try it out, taking pemasu's and my observations about -t and --interface into account. It works nicely.

With kind regards,
vovchik

Dear jrb,

Thanks for the packaging job. Works nicely. Seeing this thread, I realized that the script might be useful since I now also have a netbook, a smartphone a tablet and two PCs, in addition to two routers and an inet-connected DVB-S receiver. Back in the old days, things were simpler, and I used to use static IPs. And now there are things such as smart TVs, internet radio players and watches.

In view of the above, It might be a good idea to include devices names, too, just to avoid confusion. I'll give that a little think and see whether that can't be done without introducing unacceptable delays in the scan.

With kind regards,
vovcghik

The .pet works great in Slacko. My computer is connected to the internet through a Motorola SURFBOARD cable modem "gateway". I suppose a gateway is the same as a router. When I run 'check network_ip', it finds one IP address. Is this the IP address of the gateway, the computer, or what?
