Vernet

Vernet - Know your network

Features

1. See your Wi-Fi name, BSSID, local address, gateway, and subnet.
2. Find devices connected to your local network, including automatic scans when the app opens.
3. Check whether a website or device responds with ping, even without internet access.
4. Scan popular ports, a custom range, or a single port for reachable services.
5. Look up website addresses and find device names with forward and reverse DNS.
6. Test your download and upload speed.
7. View your public IP and internet provider information.
8. Control internet access, location permission, scan ranges, ping count, and timeouts.

Vernet helps you spot possible connection and security concerns. It does not replace a professional security audit, but it gives you useful findings to review, such as devices and services that are reachable on your network.

How to install

Vernet is available for Linux, Windows and macOS. Linux and Windows builds come in both x64 and arm64.

Platform	Architectures	Install from
Linux	x64, arm64	Snap Store or GitHub releases
Windows	x64, arm64	Microsoft Store or GitHub releases

Not sure which architecture you have? On Linux, run uname -m: x86_64 means x64 and aarch64 means arm64. On Windows, open Settings > System > About and check “System type”.

Instructions for Linux

Option 1: Snap Store (recommended)

sudo snap install vernet --beta

Then connect the network permissions once, so the app can discover devices:

snap install picks the right build for your architecture (x64 or arm64) automatically.
