Hi,

Can anyone possibly try this code on their Mbed.

For me it gets an IP address, connects to the server, sends 6 messages and then the Mbed hangs.

I am trying to determine if I have a hardware or cabling problem.

Regards,

Arthur

#include "mbed.h"
#include "EthernetInterface.h"

int main()
{
    printf("Connecting\n");
    EthernetInterface eth; // set up the interface
    eth.init(); //Use DHCP
    eth.connect(); // connect
    printf("IP Address aquired: %s\n", eth.getIPAddress());
    TCPSocketConnection sock; // set up a socket
    sock.connect("192.168.1.200", 55555); // connect to server
    printf ("Connected to Server\n");
    char *testmessage = "Hello\n";
    int bytes;
    int i;
    for (i=0;i<100;i++)
    {
        bytes = sock.send_all(testmessage, strlen(testmessage)); 
        printf("Message %d - Bytes sent: %d\n",i,bytes);
        wait_ms(10);
    }
    printf("Finished\n");
}

Hi Arthur,

I get 100 messages:

Connecting IP Address aquired: 192.168.178.13 Connected to Server Message 0 - Bytes sent: -1 .. .. Message 98 - Bytes sent: -1 Message 99 - Bytes sent: -1 Finished

Hi Gerrit,

I also get this repsonse if there is no server running on the destination PC (Bytes sent: -1 is if no message has been sent). But I have a simple server running that listens on port 55555 for connections and after a connection is made it displays the data it receives.

It is when the server is running and messages are sent (Bytes sent: 6) that the Mbed hangs after 6 sends.

The simple server test program was knocked up in VB6 using the winsock control and doesn't have any problems when messages are sent from a client running on another PC, just from the Mbed. So I do not think it is a server problem.

Arthur
