About Multicast Tester APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Multicast Tester is used for testing Multicast packets on your network.Features:
• Allows you to send and receive Multicast packets on any Multicast IP and Port combination.
• Allows custom messages to be sent.
• Shows IP Address origin of each received packet.
• Use of Material Design to give you a very simple interface.
• Receive in Hexadecimal to view the raw data sent over the network.
Troubleshooting:
I don't receive my program's packets / My programs aren't seeing what I send!
There are a couple possible reasons for this:
1. Your code may be the problem.
2. Your router's firewall may block Multicast packets.
3. Some devices inherently block all Multicast connections. In this case you may neither receive nor send packets. This is a device problem, not an app problem. It cannot be circumvented in any way, even with root. The only solution would be to install another ROM which does not block Multicast connections.
I cannot bind to a certain address or port.
Most likely, your phone is currently using that address & port combination, or you are not allowed to bind to that address & port combination. Typically you will see this error if you try to bind to a port less than 1024, as these ports are restricted for the operating system's use only. (This is the case on most operating systems, even on desktops). Try using a port larger than 1024 if you are not already, or try another IP address.
I'm seeing characters in Hexadecimal that shouldn't be there.
This is more than likely a bug in your code, not mine. However, my contact page is open if you are pretty sure that I am the one with the bug.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
