dont ya just love wireless networks?

[skullmaster1000]

ok, i'm just going to explain my situation clearly. i have a ds, a passme 1, a gbamp ver. 2, and a wireless network. i have three computers on wireless networks, and all in different rooms. is it possible to use ds2key to control my laptop, a client of the wireless network? or, when i use ds2key, will it control every single computer on the network? please help

DS2Key communicates with a pc application, so it will only control the computer the server app is ran on. You should be fine, just remember not to use wep encryption.

Here is a theoreticle question, if he has the app running on multiple computers using the same port, will it controle the others?

I don't think so, each PC has to have a unique IP, and DS2Key sets a server PC (so only one...).

Yep that's true, the network card just ignores data for any IP except for the IP the PC is set to.

That's different for a UDP broadcast though, it sends data to a range of IP's (that's the way ds2key finds the server).

Hmm... Perhaps we will never know.

well, it works, but the lag is so bad that any game is unplayable. then i tried it on the host computer, and it works beautifully. great ap, just too bad my wireless adapter doesn't have soft ap.....or i think it doesn't......
