I am managing a Homey remote, and sometimes problems are related to the local network, i.e network IP addresses. Is there anyway to scan the local network for devices and IP-adressen network via Homey? Something like the app “Net Scan” but then for a range of IP-addresses?

Don’t see any immediate solution in the apps and as far as I can tell, there’s litte to no support to scan networks using JS but perhaps you could write a script to scan from another device and post the result to the Homey using a webhook? Just tried setting it up using a flow which can then extract into usable data..

The point is that when ever a solution needs local help, I have to remotely guide non technical people to tell what to do. My experience is that that is a very cumbersome job. I might try all 255 ip-addresses in the segment. Or just make a trip to that that site.
