fast pinging subnet
i am revisiting this topic as i want to be able to find a list of devices on a network
i previously used some code posted by olaf schmidt
http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...=1#post4476707
i had some issue with erratic results as posted
http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...=1#post4583991
but believe i did have some solution for that at the time, though for some reason i can not find, despite extensive searching on my machine, any previous code from when i was testing
but the main part of the question is:
is there any way to get some meaningful description of the devices, either from the ip or mac address, i have tested with ipconfig, nmap, and any other suggestions found on the internet, but so far have nothing that returns anything useful to find what actual device is on a given ip address
i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next
dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part
come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed
