Hi,

I'm developing an app for WP7 which transmits UDP packets over the WIFI network. Everything works fine except a couple of the remote devices ignore the packets being sent to them as they are coming from an randomly assigned port number. As such I need to be able to set the local port number of the socket within my app.

As it stands the code looks like this where RemoteIP is either 2.255.255.255, 192.168.255.255 or a specific IP address in either the 2, 10 or 192.168 ranges. The port number is always 6454 which needs to be the local and remote port.

Much of the resources on the web and MSDN discuss methods that I don't think are available on Windows Phone 7.5 so I'm turning to you folks. As always your help is much appreciated.

Many thanks

Fraser

            AddHandler SocketEventArg.Completed, AddressOf Callback
            SocketEventArg.SetBuffer(data, 0, data.Length)
            _done.Reset()
            _Socket.SendToAsync(SocketEventArg)
            _done.WaitOne(TimeOut)
        End If
    End Sub

    Private Sub Callback(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As SocketAsyncEventArgs)
        Select Case e.LastOperation

            Case SocketAsyncOperation.Send
                Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Packet Sent")
            Case SocketAsyncOperation.Receive
                Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Packet Recieved")
            Case Else
        End Select
