On the Windows side I use a great little programme from NirSoft.

It's called Wireless Network Watcher.

The name is a bit of  misnomer because it shows anything connected via
your router; not just wireless connections but cabled ones as well.

It shows IP address, device name, MAC address, when detected etc.

Go to list on left, choose Network Tools and scroll down the list of
software.
The download link is quite a way down the page after the list of versions
and other bumf.

I've just updated to version 2.40. On Windows 11 defender flagged it up
as a low potential risk but it's perfectly safe so I allowed it. It was
recommended by Computer Active magazine.
