Allo USBridge Signature

[Tom Traubert]

I encountered this curiosity when searching for the USBridge Sig. on my network.

The USBridge is running moode, but it shows up as Volumio when I run the search using fing. I never had Volumio, mostly because of laziness, and the general message that moode offers the best sq.

Any idea why moode should identify itself as Volumio?

That’s not moOde identifying itself. It’s Fing guessing at what’s on the other end of the discovered IP connection.

I don’t know what algorithm Fing uses but it gives all kinds of interesting names to the hosts on my network. I can “explain” some and not others. At a guess, the app includes a table of information culled from other Fing users.

Hi Kent,

Sounds likely. :-) user-data-collection-confusion.

Happy New Year.
