Hi,
I’m getting mixed results with NMAP and the Fritz!Box device_tracker.
I have Apple devices and Nest devices in my house that appear not_home using NMAP sometimes. (ip 230-233). Other devices like NAS and printer seem to be always home using the Fritz!Box scanner.
Is there a way to configure per device which scanner to use? Or at least an IP range? I can’t seem to configure the range for the Fritz!Box. And running both device_trackers at the same time gives unpredictable results I guess. Or does it combine both results?
device_tracker:
- platform: fritz
host: !secret device_tracker_fritz_host
track_new_devices: false
consider_home: 180
interval_seconds: 12
- platform: nmap_tracker
hosts:
- 192.168.1.1-255
exclude:
- 192.168.1.10
- 192.168.1.230
- 192.168.1.231
- 192.168.1.232
- 192.168.1.233
consider_home: 180
interval_seconds: 12
home_interval: 3
new_device_defaults:
track_new_devices: false
For example the wife’s iPhone sometimes is not_home using NMAP. Fritz!Box says home.
One of my NAS devices is always home in Fritz!Box when in fact it’s turned off. Fritz!Box overrules NMAP which says it’s not_home.
NMAP says the Wifi router is home. Fritz!Box says not_home sometimes.
NMAP says the printer is not_home when it’s turned off. Fritz!Box still says it’s home.
This drives me crazy.
