Can't receive UDP on linux system
-
Hi guys:
I am going to use udp in my own application, and i tested the example(broadcastsender, broadcastreceiver) in the Qt Creatror. One thing is weird, i test some situations and show them on the following:
1.Sender in Windows, Receiver in Windows can receive data, but in Linux it can't.
2.Sender in Linux, Receiver in Windows cant receive data, in Linux it can too.I have closed the firewall in the linux. In the situation 1, Receiver still didn't receive any data, does anyone know why?? Thanks in advance.

Hope windows and linux boxes are in same network. What is the IP of both windows and linux boxes ? Since you are telling that it can receive data in a same box, it means that port is not a issue.
Another option is to check the packet flow using wireshark.

Hi guys:
I found where the problem is, because the linux connect to internet by wireless, and the windows have two interface, one by wireless and the other one by ethernet. If i remove the ethernet from windows, the linux system can receive the UDP from the windows through wireless. Can QUdpSocket have function that could ask which interface to broadcast??
