title: Connecting at Phone and Laptop together automatically (dot net)
body: <p>I was wondering what the best way to open a data channel between a phone and a laptop doesn't have to guaranty that the packets make it (ie UDP) and only has to be one way laptop -> phone. This is to provide key live information that occurs in my software on the phone. old data is useless so a 'reliable' like TCP. The devices I want to support are Android for phone and Windows for the laptop. This application doesn't get used where a access point is available so the connection will be peer to peer. The current method I have is to get the user to setup a wifi adhoc connection on their laptop and connect there phone from there but this is to many steps and I would rather a zero config solution. It can use bluetooth or wifi. I am using dot net on both pc and android (xamiran). cheers</p>
