Wire: Osc multicast input?

[JonasVorwerk]

The reason why I'm asking all these questions, is that I'm building a large interactive work. Will post photo's as soon as the first leds are blinking. I'm using multiple sensors with several Arduino's sending out OSC using 255.255.255.255 over port 9999. Usually I'm using Max but for this project Wire seems suitable.

Max and several Arduino based controllers use OSC commands to do stuff.
Wire should listen to these commands and trigger som crazy effects.

The things is, Wire doesn't seems to listen to the OSC commands send by others. It listens to its own IP but I guess not to 255.255.255.255
Therefor I (still) have to use Max, just to reroute the OSC... which should be necessary.. still following me? Attached img should make things clear...


It there a way to skit the Max re-route?

Thanks again

Does any program receive the OSC sent to 255.255.255.255 on this machine?

[JonasVorwerk]

Yes, Max as shown in the attached image above.

Or would it be better to send several OSC commands from the Arduinos? So a few to resolute, some to Ableton, and some to other Arduinos, and not using multicast?

For me, receiving OSC messages sent to 255.255.255.255 works fine on both mac and PC in both Wire and Arena.
So maybe there is something wrong with the Firewall or networking settings.

When changing the port from to 7000 it all works as expected
