Now the siteplayer can send UDP and receive and when I send UDP using java through the telnet it can receive that data. So I thought if I have two siteplayers and if one is sending data through the UDP sending at the html page, then another can get it and make a specific LED turm on. With this thought, I tried a few things to make two siteplayer talk each other, But they don't seem to communicate each other directly. Possible guess can be the data protocols they are using are not same, or I need to give specific function to PIC. Anyway, I am going to show this for midterm project. It was a very hard time to get to here. hm.

In the class Tom said the reason why we cannot get the value from LED when we send the html, is that we are not using same protocol. I thought that because java syntax also uses previous UDP message syntax, the syntax would not be so important. But it isn't. anyway I need to fix it again to make two siteplayer and LED which is hooked up with each siteplayer communicate. And I think out the final project idea using one hundred LED. Id this successfully done, it can be called 'Text Painting'. So I need to figure it out how to control the brightness of LEDs.
