How are you going to identify a device without knowing it's IP address? Does it have a host name you can look up?

Look at your DHCP server on your router. Most DHCP servers show a list of all the IP's they have leased out along with the corresponding MAC addresses.

If you are lucky, you can run
ping -n 1 192.168.1.255
arp -a
and search for an entry containing the MAC address you know.
