Let's suppose that you are a network administrator and you would like to make sure that every single computer connected to the network is configured properly and communicating without problems with the other computers. In this case, you could use the ping and tracert commands from the command prompt, but unfortunately, these commands are useless if you don't know the IP address of every computer connected to the network. For finding out each IP, you would have to check each computer, which can take a lot of time.

A much better idea would be to use the MyLanViewer application, which can easily scan all your network and display any connected computer. In this way, you will save a lot of time. The installation wizard of this program completes fast and the application itself doesn't require special skills and knowledge. Basic network knowledge should be enough for understanding the program.

For making the program work, the user should only select the IP range for scanning. The program can automatically detect the network configuration and can suggest the IP range without requiring the user to do this. After completing this step, one just needs to click on one of the two green buttons available in the interface. These buttons allow fast or completely scanning the network. Choosing the full scanning mode will ensure that every network computer will be correctly detected by the application.

At the end of the scanning process, the user will be able to view the IP and MAC address of every detected computer, together with some additional information about each of them, like the total up time, shared folders, user accounts and so on. This information allows the administrator to determine whether the computer is correctly configured or not. A scanned computer can be added to a favorites list, to be found faster the next time the user scans the network.

Pros

It can quickly scan the network and can detect any connected device, including laptops, routers and so on. Besides that, each detected computer can have various information displayed in the interface. Furthermore, certain computers can be added to a favorites list.

Cons

Using the program at full scale requires some knowledge about networks. MyLanViewer allows you to scan your network and view detailed information about each connected computer and device.
