Hello,

Actually, my long term goal is to extend my asynchronous messaging which now works inter/intra processes on an Android device to work inter-device. So what I really want to do is connect two Android Emulators via TCP.

It would seem the first step is to ping from the emulator to the host computer and that fails:

# ping 192.168.0.133 PING 192.168.0.133 (192.168.0.133): 56 data bytes

--- 192.168.0.133 ping statistics --- 9 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss

After waiting for a few seconds I hit control C and get the 100% packet loss message.

Has anyone succeeded in either connecting two Android Emulators via TCP or even pinging between an Emulator and the host?

Cheers,

Wink Saville
