Hello,
I would like to introduce my application.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tools.netgel.netx

Network scan: discovers all devices connected at the network.
Displays most important information for each device connected, IP Address, MAC Address, Vendor, Bonjour Name, NetBIOS Name and Domain.
Wake On LAN (WOL): switch on a remote device from your phone or tablet when you are connected via wifi or with a mobile data connection.

Secure SHell (SSH): put a remote device in stand-by or shutdown from your phone or tablet when you are connected via wifi or with a mobile data connection.
Displays the operative system version installed on the remote device. (In the remote device must be installed and started a SSH server)

Loads off-line all devices of a network previously detected.

Adds a new network or a new device manually in order to manage all functionality for a no detected device.

Shows information about the wifi connection (external IP, signal strength, download and upload speed, subnetmask, gateway, DNS).

Shows information about the mobile provider (external IP, signal strength, download and upload speed, CID, LAC, MCC, MNC).

Wifi scan: find nearby wifi and displays SSID, signal strength, channel, encryption.

Shows graphically the band width and the overlapping between channels of wifi networks.

Themes available.

Many languages available.

Try it!

For questions or problems please conctact me.
Thanks.
 
For the longest time I was using the Fing app and then switched to NetX. I like the user interface and there's still a really good feature set of networking tools when needed.
One request would be to address the background monitoring functionality, something that can use up system resources even when one thinks the app isn't active. It's something that has been brought up a number of times in the user comments on your Google Play page and even though you've done a good job replying to them (go into the Settings menu of the app and change the background interval options to zero), I don't know how many people actually read through the various user postings for every app they install. Perhaps add some kind of popup blurb when the app is initially started notifying users that the app will run in the background unless that option setting is made?

Thanks for your tips. I changed the default settings. Now the background services are stopped by default
