    Device idenity
    « on: November 21, 2015, 12:35:49 PM »
    Hi,
     I have seven Ethernet connected devices on my computer. I can identify five of them using arp-a and

    the router network display and match the addresses.
    Two of them, I cannot identify the router calls them new-host: and new-host-2:
    I would like to get the router descriptions corrected.
    I am quite certain that one is a Maxtor one touch disk drive which is connected to the computer.
    I don't know what the other one is. How can I determine the identity of these devices?
    Thanks
