I want to write a program in Visual C++ to transfer and receive data between a computer and microcontroller over wireless LAN.

I have to implement TCP/IP Protocol for Data Transfer.

From where should i start.

I am the beginner.

Thanks

Hello,
You can start with #include <iostream>.... Just kidding. Assuming the microcontroller supports TCP/IP, I would begin by creating a client side program and a server side program that basically simulates an FTP transfer. The fact that the medium is wireless will not matter. TCP/IP will function the same over wireless as over a wired infrastructure. Hope this helps.
Thanks

Hello,
I'm not really sure what you are asking. FTP is just a protocol for transfering data over TCP/IP. this might help: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/WSFileTransfer.asp
