They can respond with their ip address. I haven't done it myself however I remember seeing a discussion about it in the forum. Upvote 0

I want to use a Wi-Fi key connected to the USB port and send a string (with my Android App) to the device via Wi-Fi. I do not know if this will be possible. Thank you for your help. Upvote 0
