The netX is a fully compliant wireless network device, hence it responds to a ping. It also responds to other commands of an IP nature, specifically as I recall to UDP packets involving multicast configuration to allow broadcast messages to be set to multiple NetX devices.

My statement is that after all configuration is done, and all the iPronto wants to do is make the NetX put out IR by sending RF out from the iPronto, it does NOT involve the Wi-Fi wireless network. It talks directly to the NetX using RF in the same manner as a ProntoPro talked to its RF to IR bridge.

No one has been able to convince me I am incorrect. I came to this conclusion by having a sniffer on the LAN which had the Wireless AP connected to it. There was no IP traffic when the iPronto sent RF to the NetX to be converted to IR. I only wish there was.
