Is this the place for feature suggestions?

I would like a menu extra of IP Scanner (dropdown listing device name and internal IP) instead of the full app in the dock.

[inspired by the launcher app 'DragThing', which can reside _either_ in the dock _or_ in the menu bar].

Thanks, roney

this is actually a good place to put them. We can easily put IP Scanner in the menu bar as well. Good suggestion – we'll put that on our todo for the next version.

we just added TVs and game consoles with version 2.7, and will continue to add device types over time. Thanks for the suggestions for icons; keep them coming!

Any chance that you could add the ability to block a device, and add a time frame when a specific device is allowed on the network?

We'd all love to be able to block devices or kick people off of the network.  Unfortunately, that kind of thing needs to happen at the level of the router and its internal firmware; there is no way to affect that from an external app like IP Scanner.

Hi, can you then recommend anything that would alert me to a non-whitelisted user trying to access my WPA2 network?

Whilst I expect my 12 character passoword to be sufficient to keep any passers-by dropping in on my network, what can I use to alert me that a non-whitelisted user/device is now on my network?

This was the principal reason I bought this piece of software.  I am, so far, happy with my purchase but my original requirement was to identify unapproved users and then block them. Of course, to the owner of the network 'un-approved' means non-whitelisted because as soon as they successfully crack/gain my password, the network considers them 'approved' simply because they got the right password – not necessarily 'whitelisted' though.

If you are saying that it needs to be done at the router level (I am using 12 month old Airport Extreme 'n'), how do I do this?  What exactly am I looking for to achieve this? I would even like so much to be SMS'd if such an event were to happen (ie non-whitelisted user gains access, or even better, after a pre-defined number of attempts (eg 3) of unsuccessful logins).

Any suggestions welcomed… anklemaxi…

We will be adding a customizable alarm for newly discovered users in the next version. We'll make sure it doesn't trigger for whitelisted devices.

Modifying your router config is beyond what we can help you with in this forum, but some googling on how to harden your network should produce tips…
