SOLVED
The problem was in how i created my shared network on my laptop, i deleted it and created it again and that fixed the issue. also i had fragmentation enabled, after disabling that i now get ‘error 400 bad request’ from the server which is a much better problem to have thanks guys for your replies

Hi,
I have my module working successfully as a server, but now i need to open another port and connect to a specific IP as an http client.
If I set destination port as 21 the CONNECT result is successful (0x17) and I can see the ACK from the server on Wireshark, however when I set the destination port as 80 there’s no ACK from the server and eventually I get a timeout error.
I can post code if required, (haven’t got it on me right now), however someone with more TCP/IP experience than myself might already be aware of issues and enlighten me. i.e. do I need to change something in the header? and if so what?
Please advice
EDIT
I should mention the server is definitely listening on port 80, as it is an http server, also I have made a telnet connection to it on port 80 with no problems, also I had disabled my firewall while testing.[/quote]
