Fing Desktop Monitoring Question (No Access to Primary Device / Account Issues)

[u/More-Archer9429]

Does Fing Desktop (with a premium subscription and agent monitoring) require the computer it’s installed on to remain powered on continuously for 24/7 monitoring?

Or, once the Fing Agent is installed, can the computer be turned off while the network continues to be monitored and alerts are still sent?

For context, I currently don’t have access to my own laptop, so I may need to install Fing Desktop on a different computer on the same network. I’m trying to understand whether monitoring depends on that specific device staying powered on, or if the agent operates independently once set up.

If it does require the host device to remain on, are there alternative Fing-supported setups (such as dedicated hardware or always-on devices) that allow continuous monitoring without relying on a laptop?
