I have a script that checks for the 'presence' of mine and other devices on the network via MAC address.
It works really well and updates my home automation that myself or other people are home etc.
I recently added a powerline extender with WiFi to the back of the house to 'hard wire' some kit in which works really will, I bought a powerline with WiFi so I could extend the range into and onto the bottom of the garden. Again this works really well.
The problem is on the WiFi in the garden I then appear via the LAN connection and my script using wl searching on the 2.4 & 5ghz range doesn't find me and says I'm out the house triggering lots of automated stuff.
I waffled but to summarize is there a LAN equivalent of wl I can search for my MAC addresses?
