Hi Petter

You may need to bind to a specific interface before doing broadcast/multica=
st
I recall on windows server with multiple NIC's it was required to bind to
the specific NIC that was expected to receive the broadcast/multicast.

I appreciate this may be the reverse of you situation, But maybe this helps
