Im currently in the CNS (computer networking) field, and I do use my phone (Tilt) for a lot of things in my field. But the one thing I wish I had on my Tilt was a program that I can sniff out all the Ip's in my location. There be a lot of times where I just leave my laptop in my truck and when I'm trying to secure my network I like to use my ip sniffer to see if any ports are left open and if they are unsecured. It will be much easier if there was a program like that for my Tilt. If anyone can help me or at least point me into the right direction that would be wonderful. Thank every one for you furture help.
PS
I tried handy sniffer "does not work for my tilt"
and I also tried "I think it was called airsniffer" something like that and again did not work for me.

Well what exactly are you wanting? A packet sniffer or an IP scanner? I use wireshark and Solarwinds daily, but I never thought about using one for my tilt.
I assume you are connecting via wifi? So you just want to scan a subnet to see how many devices reply or are you trying to scan and resolve?

I need a Ip scanner, I have already use a IP scanner for my laptop, but I was just trying to see if there was one for my tilt. What I'm trying to do is scan for any open ports on my network.

it's just a network tool, all features are listed on the homepage...
there are some nice tools you need sometimes just to ping some hosts to see if they are alive, or you can scan an ip for open ports etc....
a little bit of basic network knowledge is still needed to understand (at least some of) these tools...
Utilities include:
* DNS Audit
* DNS Lookup
* Finger
* Get HTML
* Info
* IP Subnet Calculator
* Password Generator
* Ping
* Ping Sweep
* Port Scanner
* Quote
* Time Service
* Trace Route
* Wake On LAN
* Whois
