R Pinger
Every device on your network, at a glance. R Pinger scans your local network and lists every device on it: its name, IP and MAC address, maker, what you can connect to (web page, Remote Desktop, shared files, SSH) and whether a firewall protects it. Like arp -a, but it also finds devices that block ping and points out what is worth a look.
Free. Windows 10 and 11, 64-bit.

Questions about R Pinger
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no trial, no account with us and nothing to buy.
Which networks can it scan?
Your own: the networks your PC is connected to and private address ranges (10.x, 172.16–31.x, 192.168.x). It doesn’t scan the internet.
Does it need administrator rights?
No. The first time, Windows may ask whether R Pinger can use the network: allow it on private networks so device names can come back.
Does it send my scan anywhere?
No. Scans, labels and notes stay on your PC. R Pinger only asks us which version is the newest.
How do I uninstall it?
Use Settings › Apps › Installed apps in Windows, like any other program. Your labels, notes, last scan and settings are kept.
