I made a new script that uses the dhcp lease time to determine whether there is a new device connected to the network. Works very quickly. I have it running on my desktop with Geektool.

Code:
#! /bin/bash
#This script monitors local network via snmp
# accesslist is a txt file that sed uses to change the MAC addresses into the device name
# it notifies me via growl and displays with geektool
d=$(snmpwalk -v 2c -c publicpassword -M /usr/share/snmp/mibs:$HOME/share/mibs -m+AIRPORT-BASESTATION-3-MIB 10.0.1.1 dhcp \
| sed -f /Users/user/Documents/bin/accesslist \
|sed 's/AIRPORT-BASESTATION-3-MIB::dhcpLeaseTime.//' | awk ' $4 >= 1036600 { print $1 }')
if [ ! -n "$d" ] ; then
echo "No New Connections"
else
echo " "$d" has renewed
it's lease"
        if [ "$d" -ne ""iPhone"" ]
        then
growlnotify  -m " "$d" has just renewed it's lease" -a "Airport Utility" -n "NetWatch" -t "New DHCP Lease"
fi
fi
# I don't want a notification every time my iphone's display wakes up. it reconnects to the wifi so I added a second if statement

NAME
arpfetch - obtain ethernet/ip address pairings via snmp SYNOPSIS
arpfetch host cname DESCRIPTION
arpfetch gets pairings between ip addresses and the ethernet address of the corresponding network card. These pairings are retrieved from other network entities, like routers, by the SNMP protocol using snmpwalk(1). Mostly, this program is an agent that is used to get data for arpsnmp(8). This fetching of address mappings can be further automated by use of bihourly(8). Both command arguments must be present for proper operation. The host argument is the hostname of the network entity being queried and the cname argument is the SNMP community name of the network entity. The information is presented on stdout in a format compatible with arpsnmp(8) and arpwatch(8). Further information about SNMP can be found in snmpcmd(1) and variables(5). SEE ALSO
