How can I list the devices connected to my WiFi ne

Question

I am making a program to list all the devices who are connected to my Wi-Fi network so that I can see if anyone else is connected.

I have found a code for CMD - net view but it lists only the computers connected to my Wi-Fi but not the mobile devices. Is there any other command to list mobile devices connected to my Wi-Fi using CMD.

You need an external tool called : Wireless Network Watcher

Description :

Wireless Network Watcher is a small utility that scans your wireless network and displays the list of all computers and devices that are currently connected to your network. For every computer or device that is connected to your network, the following information is displayed: IP address, MAC address, the company that manufactured the network card, and optionally the computer name. You can also export the connected devices list into html/xml/csv/text file, or copy the list to the clipboard and then paste into Excel or other spreadsheet application.

And you can create a batch file to save the result with HTML like this :

@echo off
WNetWatcher.exe /shtml "WNetWatcher.html" 
Start "" "WNetWatcher.html"

Command-Line Options :

/cfg Start Wireless Network Watcher with the specified configuration file. For example: WNetWatcher.exe /cfg
"c:\config\wnw.cfg" WNetWatcher.exe /cfg "%AppData%\WNetWatcher.cfg"

/stext Scan your network, and save the network devices
list into a regular text file.

/stab Scan your network,
and save the network devices list into a tab-delimited text file.

/scomma Scan your network, and save the network devices
list into a comma-delimited text file (csv).

/stabular Scan your network, and save the network devices list into a tabular text file.

/shtml Scan your network, and save the network devices
list into HTML file (Horizontal).

/sverhtml Scan your network, and save the network devices list into HTML file (Vertical).

/sxml Scan your network, and save the network devices
list into XML file.
