Webtile Network Discovery Now

Problem: DHCP IPs change. Laptops move. A static tile coordinate (e.g., "192.168.1.x") becomes obsolete when a device moves to a new subnet. Solution: Use Device Fingerprinting . Instead of storing an IP, store a fingerprint (MAC address + Hostname + OS fingerprint). The tile generator updates the coordinates every discovery cycle. If the fingerprint moves, the tile moves.
