Hi CodeProject,

Can you please give me a Hello World code for connecting an application over wifi between laptop & android.

The code says Hi from laptop and gets a reply hello from android or another laptop over wifi.
Can be as small as possible.

But surely needs basic concepts of connectioning and then sending hi text to hello reply.
Preferred programming would be C# and wifi library if used will be good.

Thanks,
prakash

Thanks. But that was Lan networked solution, which i know already. I wanted same example for wifi. Just type it. If errors, not an issue. All i want to know is the basic steps of setup. Then the data.

It's one and the same. Wifi is just another LAN as like Wired LAN. From user's perspective it's generally transparent. You won't see a separate wifi specific api like say openWifiSocket. You will always say openSocket and OS will do the rest using the best possible available network interface. This link will provide you more insight (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/wired-and-wireless-connections-on-the-same-windows/ee40d9a6-297b-46d4-b5c8-db57d927b62e).
