Desktop fails to identify source of connectivity in MacOS when bridging (internet sharing)

GeorgeChiesa

Reproducibility. Connect to lan or wan. share internet with another port (in my case a raspbian on usb, can be ethernet or anything), launch fing desktop or observe in already running fing, that a bridge is now detected in lieu of the "input" connection.  Desktop fails because it's looking for the 192.168.2.1 or whatever local bridge address. 
Proposed solution, detect bridge mode (internet sharing), figure out which is the correct subnet to scan for fing desktop purposes (it could be all active?). Please fix asap, major pita to have to use other network scanners which do work to do the job fing desktop was designed to do

Hi @GeorgeChiesa
I have seen multiple users are facing issues with Fing desktop notifications and connection error.
An update for the reported issue:
Our developers are investigating some issue happened after the last release of mobile apps. There is an unusual load on our servers that is saturating the resources. And because of this Fing desktop has started to send false alarms.

Today as a workaround we will tune the config to try to make the server keep up but the issue on the mobile apps is under investigation.
I hope it helps. And soon as there is some more update I will let you know.
