SpiceWorks is free SW and returns a lot of good performance data on critical network components, but I'm having some trouble setting up the SNMP string for my router. Anyone else using this SW?
 
In my opinion NetXMS has more functionality and supports a large number of MIBs for SNMP. It supports SNMP versions 1, 2c, 3 and also a built in SNMP walk function to help identify SNMP strings.

I'll look it over and see if it will access my Gateway router. Just a brief look at their video it appears that it is not necessary to use the Windows command prompt.
 
What is your router? "TrendNet" isn't very descriptive.

My router is actually now an Arris that I am leasing from my ISP; Comcast.

I have tried to access this router via the command prompt using the Microsoft "telnet" client, using the "open" command and the IP address. Just wont work.

I bought a Fingbox

I put the "fing" app on my I-phone, and it is great for identifying all the devices on my network and all the associated IP addresses, but no SNMP info.
