Sou novato nisso, então por favor, me escute se eu fizer perguntas idiotas.

Estou tentando fazer uma conexão UDP entre o PC Emulator do Eclipse e um telefone Android
(ou entre dois dispositivos de telefone Android).

eu tenho umroteador e o telefone se conecta à internet através da rede wifi do roteador. O PC também está na mesma rede (conexão direta entre o roteador a cabo e o PC). Estou tentando enviar alguns dados de texto do thread do servidor para thread do cliente, mas nada é recebido / enviado. :(

oServidor classe java (RE-EDITED, o servidor recebe a mensagem do cliente):

<code>public class server implements Runnable 
{
    // the Server's Port
    public static final int SERVERPORT  = 6000;

    // running Server thread.
    public void run() 
    {
        Log.d("redwing","server thread started.");
        DatagramSocket serverSocket = null;

        try
        {
            // Open Server Port
            serverSocket = new DatagramSocket(server.SERVERPORT);
            byte[] receiveData  = new byte[32];
            byte[] sendData     = new byte[32];
            // loop until "server_finished"  becomes False.
            while(createserver.server_finished)
            {
                if(renderer.gGL!=null)  // ignore me, just a null pointer checker
                {
                    // waiting for the incoming client's message packet
                    DatagramPacket receivePacket = new DatagramPacket(receiveData, receiveData.length);
                    serverSocket.receive(receivePacket);
                    renderer.recv = new String(receivePacket.getData());
                    Log.d("server","packet received from client, ETA " + timing.getNow() + " " + renderer.recv); // timing getNow - just returns current system minute & second.

                    // server is replying to the client back with a message.
                    InetAddress IPAddress = receivePacket.getAddress();
                    int port = receivePacket.getPort();

                    sendData = new String("server msg").getBytes();
                    DatagramPacket sendPacket = new DatagramPacket(sendData, sendData.length, IPAddress, port);
                    serverSocket.send(sendPacket);
                    renderer.sent = new String(sendData, 0, sendData.length);
                    Log.d("server","packet sent to client, ETA " + timing.getNow() + " " + renderer.sent);     // timing getNow - just returns current system minute & second.
                }
            }
            // close the socket
            if(serverSocket!=null) serverSocket.close();
            serverSocket = null;
        }
        catch (Exception e) 
        {
            Log.e("server", "Error", e);
            if(serverSocket!=null) serverSocket.close();
            serverSocket = null;
        }
        finally 
        {
            if(serverSocket!=null) serverSocket.close();
            serverSocket = null;
        }
        Log.d("redwing","server thread terminated.");
    }
}

e aCliente classe java (RE-EDITADO, Cliente não recebe msg do servidor):

<code>public class client implements Runnable 
{
    public static final int CLIENTPORT  = 5000;
    // running Client thread.
    public void run() 
    {
        Log.d("redwing","client thread started.");
        DatagramSocket clientSocket = null;

        try
        {
            // getting local address 
            clientSocket = new DatagramSocket(server.SERVERPORT);
            InetAddress IPAddress = InetAddress.getByName("192.168.0.100");  

            // displaying IP & hostname.
            Log.d("client", "IP: " + IPAddress.getHostAddress() + " Name: " + IPAddress.getHostName());
            byte[] sendData     = new byte[32];
            byte[] receiveData  = new byte[32];
            // Loop until client_finished becomes False.
            while(createclient.client_finished)
            {
                if(renderer.gGL!=null)  // ignore me, just a null pointer checker
                {
                    // sending a message to the server
                    sendData = timing.getNow().getBytes();
                    DatagramPacket sendPacket = new DatagramPacket(sendData, sendData.length, IPAddress, client.CLIENTPORT);
                    clientSocket.send(sendPacket);
                    renderer.sent = new String(sendData,0,sendData.length);;
                    Log.d("client","packet sent to server, ETA " + timing.getNow());  

                    // waiting for the server packet message.
                    DatagramPacket receivePacket = new DatagramPacket(receiveData, receiveData.length);
                    clientSocket.receive(receivePacket);

                    Log.d("client","packet received from server, ETA " + timing.getNow());
                }
            }
            // close the socket
            if(clientSocket!=null) clientSocket.close();
            clientSocket = null;
        }
        catch (Exception e)

Estou executando o servidor no emulador de PC android e o cliente no meu telefone android.

Ambos os encadeamentos Client & Server funcionam bem, mas ... o problema é que eu não recebo nenhum dado trocado entre eles. oo cliente não recebe nada e o servidor não recebe nada. Os pacotes são enviados, mas nada é recebido.

O que estou fazendo errado?

Por favor me ajude.
Agradeço antecipadamente.
