Trouble setting up device tracker

I am having trouble setting up device tracking in my home assistant setup and I was hoping someone could help me with a solution that didnt entail me buying a new router. I have a Luxul XBR-4400 router for my home (https://www.luxul.com/routers/wired-routers/xbr-4400.aspx) connected with a couple of their access points. The system works great but I cannot figure out how to get it working with home assistant. I dont see it under supported platforms and was wondering if there were any work arounds.

I am really new to HA. I apologize if this is a common question but I didnt see it covered in a search.

What kind of device tracking are you looking for? If you’re just looking for something to know when you’re home or not you can use things like NMAP and ping or set up your own MQTT server and run Owntracks. Just because your router isn’t supported doesn’t mean you can’t use device tracking.

Ping is super simple and easy to set up. I’d start there if I were a new me.

mta. Owntracks, not Owncloud
