TCP/IP Wireless Device Network Communication

Hello,

I work with a company that services a broad network of wireless devices that can be communicated with via telnet or putty. It's all a bit over my head but basically we use MAC IDs and TCP/IP addresses to communicate with our devices out in the field.

I was wondering if there are any courses on Tree House (or elsewhere) that cover communicating with wireless devices.

Thanks,

Edward

What programming language? With JavaScript you can use Web Sockets or nodejs' net module. If you're using C++ I'd recommend boost::asio and Java has a built in networking library too.

Plural Sight has some good networking courses, which ones you choose however depends on what exactly you want to know and on how much depth.

Thanks gents, I was able to use the Plural Sight free trial to get a solid overview.
