Error - View Single Post - tcp/ip raw socket communication via GPRS mobile phone ( t68i )

**Iphone** · 29-Mar-2007, 01:53 AM

I am trying to establish a very simple socket communication betwen a client PC and a server PC.

The server has a direct IP on the internet, and is comprised of a vb application that simply listens on port 80 ( raw tcp/ip sockets ) for a string that is expected to be sent by the client with a # char indicating the end.

The client machine is a PC running windows XP and there is a T68i connected at the serial port.
I would like to open a terminal on this client PC, type some at commands and send this string via GPRS. Is it possible ?

Do I need a TCP/IP stack on the client or does t68i already has the stack embedded ? The question is because on a next step, I will have an 8051 microcontroler sending the same AT commands to a serial port where the T68i is connected, and I do not intend to implement a tcp/ip stack on the 8051.
