Supporting TCP/IP mode for LimitlessLED v4.0 Bridges. #34

Open LimitlessLED opened 9 years ago

LimitlessLED commented 9 years ago

We are going to be releasing some wifi bridges with TCP/IP support in the near future to increase the reliability of communications, it will be a user defined option. That would require apps such as Light-Controller to also have a TCP implementation of the sending command class, via a user setting to switch between UDP/IP and TCP/IP

I have done some tcp sockets for another project I'm working on so that shouldn't be too much of an issue, are the bytes sent the same or is the whole api different?

LimitlessLED commented 9 years ago

Same commands, just wifi bridge wifi module receiving mode is TCP/IP or UDP/IP selectable from Light-Controller app.

LimitlessLED commented 9 years ago

Some people lately thought that the new black and gold label wifi controller are v1, when they are indeed in fact the latest v4. There are some github projects out there stating that if the label is black it must be v1. That is not true. Just thought I would mention it, in case this github project also thinks the same.

Im thinking about getting a new bridge as the one i have seem to randomly turn lights on in the middle of the night at times, any way to make sure im getting the v4?

eliotstocker commented 7 years ago

ok, I'm working on this now. finally got around to ordering a TCP bridge, so should come soon, gonna get a head start and add the TCP server etc.

eliotstocker commented 7 years ago

thought i think i ordered a V6, i assume thats the same as v4 in that it uses TCP etc
