Fing App: v 4.0.5 - The end of the road

I've used Fing forever. It served me well for a long time. Unfortunately, with the latest release and a support ticket response that... I'll leave it there.

The previous version of the app had effectively and accurately monitored 127 IP devices on my home network. The database contained a rich catalogue of extra data that had been added over several years. All the little fiddly pieces of data like warranty end dates, HA access codes, etc. It didn't need me to troubleshoot it often; when it did, it was quick.

The new version...

  1. Fing app upgraded and doesn't recognize the network it has managed forever. Monitoring remains offline.
  2. Fing support ticket response was "Delete previous instances and it will allow you to monitor two networks... ticket closed." No consideration for the fact the device data would all be erased, and no warning.
  3. The interface requires scrolling within the device list if you have all columns active. This window is fixed, so even with the app maximized, scrolling is required.
  4. Data is incorrect in an alarming number of fields.
  5. The "Upgrade to Pro" advertisement is annoying.

Effort outweighs reward, so...

NordVPN Subscription Issue

Posting here as the Nord sub deleted it immediately. /insert eye twitching.

Hey folks,

I have an odd situation occurring with my NordVPN subscription. my.nordaccount.com indicates that my subscription expired as of Aug 7th. (This doesn't align with any of my purchase/renewal dates.) In the Nord Account Billing section, the subscription shows as active with the correct renewal date. I have opened a ticket with Nord support, and they have offered a 1-3 day response time.

I also have a dedicated IP and a few other subscription upgrades, which are all now held hostage.

There were no emails from Nord Account warning of a pending renewal, just... click... dial tone.

I'm now in a work-stop situation which is why I'm here. Looking for guidance from you fine folks.
