Hi,
The problem is that I cannot use special broadcasting address because most switch/router does not allow them to pass (at least here :-).
So, I have to - as I said - find way to work around this problem.
Thanks.

Afaik broadcast is one single send and everybody listens.
IIRC a special broadcasting address is used where everybody listens.
I never done TCP myself but it feels very wrong to to resend the same message for each receiver.
