Other options that you have are to disable the notification sound or window that pops up, to run network diagnostics, or to define when to check for program updates.
You can change the interval to a minimum of 2 minutes or a maximum of 10 minutes. The program scans the selected IP ranges in 4 minute intervals by default.
You can make some customizations in the preferences though. And if you spot any configuration issues, such as no encryption or not the securest form of encryption, you should resolve those as well while you are at it. What you can and should do however is change the WiFi password right away. In addition, it won't generate reports and only supports local notifications about intrusions. According to pricing information on the developer website, it cannot be used to block intruders. The free version of the program is somewhat limited in terms of what you can do in addition to that.
You can also add a name for each device besides setting its status to known, so that it is even easier to identify.įor each device found, its Mac Address, last IP address, last computer name, connection status, identification status, and description (custom name you pick) are displayed. You can switch that to known and save the changes so that you are no longer notified when the device is detected on the network. Every new device connection is classified as unknown by default.
