hi all

i am writing simple udp socket cleint/server program in linux. i am transmitting through wireless lan in infrastructure mode using the accesss points.

i am sending data from laptop1 to laptop2.then laptop1 is able to send the data to the laptop2.

if i run the same program in reverse i.e laptop2 sending data to laptop1.laptop1 is unable to receive data it is waiting at recvfrom() but laptop2 is successfully sending data.

i am not getting where the error is?

You should get a sniffer and check if the packets get to laptop1. The interface statistic is a good indicator, too, if you don't have other options.
