Hey TP-Link Community,

 

We are excited to announce our partnership with Fing to introduce a new Client Identification feature in upcoming firmware updates for select Wi-Fi 7 Archer Router and Deco models. This feature enhances the accuracy of device identification on your network, making network management simpler and more effective.

 

What is Fing Client Identification?   

The Client Identification feature leverages Fing’s capabilities to provide more detailed information about devices connected to your network using common network data from your devices to help identify the device type, brand, and model, then sends the results back to the router.

Note: You may have already seen the option to enable this feature on your device. In the Web UI of Archer Routers, it is listed as Authorize Third-Party Services in Advanced > System > Authorize Third-Party Services

Alternatively, if your router supports this feature, you may see the following prompt in the Deco or Tether app:

How Does Fing Client Identification Benefit You?  

Accurate device identification: Know exactly which devices are connected to your network, including smartphones, laptops, gaming consoles, and IoT devices.
Simplified network management: Detailed information about each device allows you to manage your network more efficiently and accurately, from prioritizing traffic to setting effective Parental Controls.
Tailored troubleshooting: With specific device data, our Support Team can provide more in-depth support and solutions customized to each device type, ensuring a smoother experience.
