hello forum, I am trying to send an empty UDP packet to visual basic 6.0 winsock as you can see in attached picture wireshark ''sees'' theUDP packets howeverwinsock never go into below subroutine ( it doesnot getthe packets) what is the missing thinghere? thank you

Private
Sub
Winsock1_DataArrival(
ByVal
bytesTotal 
As
Long
) 
Text1 = bytesTotal 
Dim
strData 
As
String
Winsock1.GetData strData, vbString 
End
Sub

Not familiar with how it works in VB, but building an app using WinSock you need to register the application with the Windows Firewall for it to work as expected.

The easiest way to debug your VB program is to create a second socket in VB and send data to yourself. You can either use your own IP or the loopback address 127.0.0.1; whether it will actually make it out on the wire or not depends on the stack in Windows (though I wouldn't count on it). Either way you can test your construction of listening on port 1023 and the data receive function without even leaving your PC.

hello forum ,

I succeeded to send ''TEST'' to PC from my STM32F4

however only with a cross cable ( directly from STM to PC )

why cant I send when I conect STM to adsl router ?

has anybody a working UDP code for STM32F4

thank you

''why cant I send when I conect STM to adsl router?''

Probably because your rouer configuration does not allow it?

This might be useful:

You should start by seeing if you can successfully send & receive UDP packets between 1 PCs on your network...

You'd want to confirm the IP/MAC addresses involved, if you have the IP for a Gateway and DNS.

I'd generally recommend the use of standard cables, and a dumb hub (ie not a switch), this reduces complication, and permits you to ''T'' connect into an active network and observe traffic.
