And do broadcasts have to be UDP? ...

I think so.

TCP/IP requires an established connection... which is more-or-less impossible through broadcast. I don't think you can have a one-to-many relationship with TCP/IP.

UDP is sort of a fire-and-forget way of sending information through a network, so you can easily set up one-to-many communications with it (since via UDP, you do not necessarily care about responses).

I wish I could help you, malya, but I don't know enough about network broadcasting yet.
