Hello,

I connected a few computers via bundled cable and want to send a message to a choosen computer. I took the rednet.send(id, message) command, but the message was send to every computer connected with the bundled cable. Is this a normal behavior of the bundled cable, because it works with a rednet wireless modem without any problems?

Send a color.<colorname> and have that computer receive that color. Do the same with another color and another computer?

Yeah, but I wanna send messages with letters via rednet, not only a redstone signal..
So the question is: Is it possible to make the receiver id working in bundled cable or is it normal that a rednet messagewhich is send in a bundled cable will be send to every computer connected to that bundled cable?

Thanks
Patrick

Well, all computers connected to one bundled cable will see all messages going through. You can't stop that.
However, as far as I understand the rednet source code, it should do some filtering and only report messages for your computer. I never tried it, though...

It works now.
