How do I identify a device on my network??

Masseychusetts

Hi,

I am trying out Fing and am having trouble trying to identify a device on my network. It's called Sky Light Digital.

Can anyone shed any light on how to best figure out what device this might be?

Thanks in advance!

Ok, I figured this out.

I have a Guardzilla indoor security camera.

But, here's the problem. This device name previously defaulted with a different name. Now, it's Sky Light Digital.

I don't get it...

Thanks for everyone's assistance helping me figure this out!

Hi @Masseychusetts , by any chance to do you have a connected digital picture frame?   If you do, check the IP addressed assigned to it against what Fing is telling you it has.  If it matches you know what it is.

Do you have a digital photo frame?

@Marc beat me to it 😴

No digital frames. I find that online as well.

I'm stumped!

No digital frames. Thanks for that.

I'm stumped!

A challenge @Masseychusetts !    If you know its IP address you can try to HTTP to it from your browser.  Sometimes, if the device has a web server built in, you could get a response telling you what it is.

Great--I'll try that @Marc

No go. It requires a username/password.
