Not sure why I keep getting a "Trial Version" in the MAC address, Response Time and Host Name columns when running a scan. Always the same 2 IP addresses, .243 and .255. I've uninstalled all recently added apps, rebooted, etc. I've searched the heck outta this and didn't find anything online. Anyone else ever run across it? It seems innocuous.

NEVER MIND! Echo Dot had been re-plugged in...thought it was disabled. Unplugged that and issue was gone.

<Sheepish look> Rebooted, rescanned and another instance of the "Trial Version" shows up as a device at .210... I give up.

If you see the words "trial version" in the scan results, it means you are using a free trial version of the software that displays a limited number of devices. Information about devices beyond the free limit is replaced with "trial version" text.

Purchasing a licence and entering the licence key will remove this limitation and reveal all the device details that have been discovered by the scan.
