## What is Net Status?

Net Status lets you get a fast glimpse of what is happening now with your hosts, routers and other network devices connected to the Internet or LAN.

The tool checks network services your hosts run for availability and presents the information in a convenient way in order to speed up the diagnostics of network problems. With Net Status you can quickly and easily determine which hosts and services are down from your monitoring list.

Net Status employs asynchronous algorithms that allow Net Status to operate really fast. Fractions of a second are needed to check a host with quite a number of running services. Even problematic hosts won't slow down the check process for a time much longer than a timeout you specify.

FEATURES
- Group hosts into multiple checklists
- Automatic scan of hosts for running services
- E-mail check results
- Predefined services for your convenience
- Possibility to add custom services
- Checks ICMP, TCP and UDP
- MAC address and hardware vendor lookup
- Wake on LAN or Wi-Fi
- Wake over the Internet (using proper routers)
- Ping hosts with integrated tool
- WHOIS hostnames, IP addresses
- Ultrafast asynchronous network I/O

### 3/5 — 便利

*2025-09-27*

VPNがちゃんと繋がったか確認するのに使ってます。
WOL用のMACアドレスがなぜか保存されずに消えるのでWOLは別のアプリを使っています。

### 5/5 — Manque juste les notifs

*2023-05-10*

Je l'utilise depuis des années, toujours très pertinent pour surveiller tout un parc de serveurs web en un coup d'œil, manque juste la possibilité de configurer des notifications / alertes si un service est down..

### 1/5 — The App Does Not Work

*2023-03-16, version 1.11*

The app doesn’t meet its purpose as far as M2 Pro Mac Mini is concerned. Regardless of whether I combine my M2 Pro Mac Mini WiFi local IP address with its corresponding MAC address, or its Ethernet local IP address with its corresponding MAC address, my M2 Pro Mac Mini does not wake up from the sleep state. MacOS Ventura 13.2.1 built-in Firewall is turned off, as well as is the FileVault and Lockdown Mode, and I don’t have any third-party antivirus piece of software installed, so, as far as I know, there is nothing that could block the Magic Packet from making through. Not through Net Status, but I have used the Wake-on-LAN function with my previous Windows PC and my current wireless router without an active Firewall before, and so I know that Wake-on-LAN should work. Why it doesn’t work with my MacOS Ventura 13.2.1 M2 Pro Mac Mini, exposed to all incoming connections, I have no idea.

### 1/5 — Перестала работать

*2022-09-16*

При добавлении узла намертво зависает после ввода имени или адреса. 
Хорошая программка была когда-то.

### 5/5 — O.K.

*2020-02-09*

Très bien
O.K. permet de scanner un périphérique sur le réseau et de voir les ports ouvert/Fermé, par exemple.

### 1/5 — Add push

*2020-02-06*

Make push notifications when the service is not active.

### 4/5 — Nice app

*2019-12-19, version 1.10.3*

Nice app. Works as advertised. Would be nice to have support for better alerts, a widget, and nonstandard ports.

### 4/5 — Super

*2019-12-03*

Das Tool macht was es soll. Super für die Netzwerk Überwachung. Da ich am IPad aber meistens im Querformat arbeite, wegen Tastatur, fehlt mir dieser hier. Es läuft leider nur im Hochformat. 
Splitscreen und weitere Funktion fehlen leider.

### 5/5 — Ótimo

*2019-04-29*

App muito bom, eu uso a bastante tempo. Porém eu só sinto uma necessidade bem simples nele, que funcione com o iPad na horizontal, faz bastante falta pra quem trabalha desta forma.

### 3/5 — Crash

*2019-04-23*

Hello, app is crashed at last ios on iphone X 

And very need notification 😋😋😋
