The router *does* tell you accurately what is connected.
So does Fing.
But *nothing* else on Linux does.

Which is odd. 
But it is a fact.

We covered it in gory detail on alt.os.linux.
Here's a summary from another thread.


It was a while ago, but I'll have to go to the Linux archives:
http://tinyurl.com/alt-os-linux

Searching for "Fing" came up with this recent thread of mine:
- Subject: How to list all devices on the Windows or Linux home network
- Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2016 to March 4, 2016
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/alt.os.linux/fing$20|sort:relevance/alt.os.linux/EIcNPurXefg/YWpMcPbuAwAJ

There is a long discussion of all the native Linux tools, none of which
worked as well as Fing did on a mobile device to find out what devices were
hooked to the home network.

Then on February 21st, the Linux Fing was suggested, which was installed,
and after a while, it worked on Linux.

But still, without Fing, running as root on Linux, there wasn't a single
Linux program that *accurately* reported the devices connected to the
network.

Meanwhile, on Android and iOS, an unrooted Fing worked just fine.
Fancy that!

Unfortunately, as noted in my thread, Fing is closed source.

> Problem solved. Yer welcome.

Thanks. But you'll notice my screenshots in that thread shows that I knew
Fing was on Linux as a separate installation which is *not* in any app
archives (yum or apt-get). 

So I'm ahead of you - but I do appreciate the help because you don't know
all my thousands of nyms (my friends say I'm half the Internet alone). 

But you'll recognize my screenshots in that thread...
