What a great name for a software company – Banana Glue!
In my job it is often useful to find out what machines are on a net work – if I can get a wifi connection the Banana Glue’s iNet scanner is a great tool to give you that information. I tried the free version and after just a few minutes on a network I bought the pro version – it rapidly let me find out the fixed IPs of the printers on the network.
The website (Banana Glue) describes the features of the software in detail, and provides a link to the Apps Store – but two of the best features are to be able to save or email the scan results, for filing or later comparison of a network’s structure.
I used it today on a smaller network, originally just to have a record of the structure but it actually showed that another PC in the shared building was using the the connection without permission – that we soon stopped by changing the WPA code and hiding the SSID.
Before the iPhone I used (and still use) an application SuperScan – which I have installed to a USB stick for use onsite. I have an older version which causes less aggravation with anti-virus software. It to can save the scan results and the software has been an essential part of my everyday tool kit for work.
