Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to set IP parameters like TimeToLive (aka TTL) for socket connections?

First post, my apologies if this is the wrong forum, pls let me know if there's a better place to ask.

The Lua interface doesn't offer low-level networking options.

I don't fully understand how one should distinguish between the Lua 'firmware' sub forum and the 'random Lua' sub forum. So, you picked the right one somehow

Thanks, I understand. Do you happen to know the TTL value that's being used? From what I can tell it seems to be set to 1, 32 would be better for more complex internal networks - any chance of getting that changed?
