About My Home Network
My Home Network turns a Raspberry Pi into a local monitor for your home network.
It periodically scans the LAN with nmap, looks up device vendors, and lets you rename devices and mark them as trusted or unknown. When a device you have not seen before joins the network, it notifies you via Telegram or email. Data is stored locally in SQLite on the Pi, and core monitoring works without any cloud account.
It is distributed as a paid digital kit rather than a source download: a prebuilt Docker image for arm64, an offline installer script, and a browser-based setup wizard. You supply the Raspberry Pi (a Pi 4 with 2 GB or more is recommended) and run a one-time SSH setup of about 15 minutes.
What it does not do: it does not block devices — it alerts you, and your router still controls who can join. It is not a pre-flashed SD card, and it does not ship with HTTPS or remote access; the dashboard is reached over the LAN at http://PI-IP:8080.
The project is currently in Early Access. One-time purchase, no subscription.
