DS Misc > TCP/IP for DS?

#77331 - entilzha - Thu Mar 30, 2006 10:44 am

Hi guys,

Maybe it's me and this is written somewhere but I can't seem to find it. Is there already a TCP/IP library or header or whatever available like the normal socket.h in C/C++ ? There's a LOT of activity on the WiFi stuff in general but I cant figure out about protocols and such. Also I noted the DS Linux project, but I dont want to run a whole linux kernel just for the network modules.

I'd be wanting to use the DS as a wireless interface to some computers on a W-LAN with a very specific monitoring application running on the DS. Any suggestions?

Thanx in advance..

I'm pretty sure the TCP implementation hasnt been added to sgtairs's wifi lib yet, in the next full release apparently tcp is working so you can either use linux or wait till the next version comes out

Excellent, thank you. I'll look into this library thingy, and hope the next version will be out soon..

I am not sure if this is what you were looking for.

I am working on porting the lwIP IP stack over to the DS which does TCP amoung other things.
