Receiving UDP packets from Wireless IMU application in Unity

I have a project where I have a wireless IMU application on my android phone. Based on the app description, it sends out accel/gyro data in csv format over UDP to a target IP address and port.
Currently I am trying to code a UDPListener in Unity that receives this data.

using UnityEngine.Networking;
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class UDPReceiver1 : MonoBehaviour
{
Thread udpListeningThread;
public int portNumberReceive;
UdpClient receivingUdpClient;
string[] delimiters = { ", ", "," };
string[] data;
void Start()
{
initListenerThread();
}
void initListenerThread()
{
Debug.Log("Started on : " + portNumberReceive.ToString());
udpListeningThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(UdpListener));
// Run in background
udpListeningThread.IsBackground = true;
udpListeningThread.Start();
}
public void UdpListener()
{
receivingUdpClient = new UdpClient(portNumberReceive);
while (true)
{
//Listening
try
{
IPEndPoint RemoteIpEndPoint = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 0);
// Blocks until a message returns on this socket from a remote host.
byte[] receiveBytes = receivingUdpClient.Receive(ref RemoteIpEndPoint);
if (receiveBytes != null)
{
string returnData = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(receiveBytes);
Debug.Log("Message Received" + returnData.ToString());
Debug.Log("Address IP Sender" + RemoteIpEndPoint.Address.ToString());
Debug.Log("Port Number Sender" + RemoteIpEndPoint.Port.ToString());
data = returnData.Split(delimiters, StringSplitOptions.None);
Debug.Log(data);
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Debug.Log(e.ToString());
}
}
}
void OnDisable()
{
if (udpListeningThread != null && udpListeningThread.IsAlive)
{
udpListeningThread.Abort();
}
receivingUdpClient.Close();
}
}
As of now this code does not work at all, and I have been very perplexed as to why it isnt working. Many forums seem to follow the same structure and the code seems logical.
When I tested the connection, what i did was to attach this script to a gameobject, set an arbitrary port number, e.g. "12345", and Play. Meanwhile I ran the application on my android phone, with the target IP address being the computer's Ip address and the target port number being the same port number I used earlier.
I would really appreciate it if any kind soul can help, as I have been stuck here for close to 2 weeks;(

How to C# send AT command to GSM modem and get response

I want to get AT command response.
I want to read SMS from my GSM modem.
I fount some code on google, This script send AT commands but not get response.
This is my code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.IO.Ports;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace CSharp_SMS
{
public partial class Form_SMS_Sender : Form
{
private SerialPort _serialPort;
public Form_SMS_Sender()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void buttonSend_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string number = textBoxNumber.Text;
string message = textBoxMessage.Text;
_serialPort = new SerialPort("COM6", 115200);
Thread.Sleep(1000);
_serialPort.Open();
Thread.Sleep(1000);
_serialPort.WriteLine("AT" + "\r");
Thread.Sleep(1000);
string status = _serialPort.ReadLine();
labelStatus.Text = "|-"+ status + "-|";
_serialPort.Close();
}
}
}
This code is not work.
not get response, but send AT commands.
How to get response?
Thanks

if ECHO is off on your modem, you won't get any response to your AT commands.
Ensure echo is enabled by sending ATE1 first
Thread.Sleep(1000);
_serialPort.WriteLine("ATE1" + "\r");
Thread.Sleep(1000);
_serialPort.WriteLine("AT" + "\r");

celu.RtsEnable = true;
celu.DtrEnable = true;
celu.WriteBufferSize = 3000;
celu.BaudRate = 9600;
celu.PortName = "COM26"; // You have check what port your phone is using here, and replace it
celu.Open();
//string cmd = "AT+CLIP=1"; // Here you put your AT command
//celu.WriteLine(cmd);
celu.WriteLine ("AT+CLIP=1"+"\r");
Thread.Sleep(500);
//celu.Open();
string ss = celu.ReadExisting();

C# UDP Chat receive no message

I try to write a UDP-Chat in C#.
I have some unexpected behavoir in my Chat Programm, when I start the programm on two different machines connected to the same Network. At the first mashine the programm works fine it can send and recive messages properly, but on the second machine it can just send messages but it can't recive them.
I testet this with a 3rd mashine too(a VM with a bridged networkinterface), but with the same result, it just can send messages without recieving.
is there a error in my code or is it a desing error?

Instead of IPAddress.Broadcast(255.255.255.255) provide your local network broadcast address. See the example below:
IPAddress broadcast = IPAddress.Parse("192.168.1.255"); //replace the address with your local network.
IPEndPoint endPoint = new IPEndPoint(broadcast, 11000);
sendClient.Send(message, message.Length, endPoint);
IPAddress.Broadcast doesn't work in some network.

IRC Bot GUI crash?

Ok so, The bot connects just fine, but when I create the bot, the form crashes. The bot stays connected but also the !about commands doesnt work. If i use this same exact code with a console application everything works fine. The problem is just the UI form
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;

using System.Net.Sockets;
namespace cIRCBot

public partial class bSetup : Form
{

{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void createbotbtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string buf, nick, owner, server, chan;

return;
}

sock.Connect(server, port);
if (!sock.Connected)
{

return;
}
else
{
this.Close();

output = new StreamWriter(sock.GetStream());

if (buf.StartsWith("PING ")) { output.Write(buf.Replace("PING", "PONG") + "\r\n"); output.Flush(); }
if (buf[0] != ':') continue;
/* IRC commands come in one of these formats:
* :NICK!USER#HOST COMMAND ARGS ... :DATA\r\n
* :SERVER COMAND ARGS ... :DATA\r\n
*/
//After server sends 001 command, we can set mode to bot and join a channel
if (buf.Split(' ')[1] == "001")
{
output.Write("MODE " + nick + " +B\r\n" + "JOIN " + chan + "\r\n");
output.Flush();
if (buf.Contains("!about"))
{
output.WriteLine("PRIVMSG {0} :" + "I'm a shitty little bot coded by " + botname, channelname);
output.Flush();
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
This is the Main window, I have the other form which you use to setup
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace cIRCBot
{
public partial class mWin : Form
{
public mWin()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void newBotToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
bSetup bSetup = new bSetup();
bSetup.Show();
}
private void quitToolStripMenuItem1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Application.Exit();
}
}
}
This is the setup window

I suspect that what causes the problem is the fact that You're doing this.Close() and it gets disposed. After calling Close() You go into for() and try to operate on possibly disposed resources.

Reverse SSH Port Forwarding in C#

I came across this article when trying to put together a reverse SSH solution in visual studio C#:
.NET SSH Port Forwarding
Using his code works up until the point where I actually start the port (port.Start()), then it throws an exception. Doing a reverse tunnel with PuTTY works just fine, so I believe the server is set up correctly. Am I doing something wrong in regards to implementing this SSH.NET library?
