whenever you use ap51-flash(-ng) you never have to configure anything. I suggest 
you give it a try.

ap51-flash comes with its own lightweight network stack which is OS 
independent. As I said before: The only part that needs to be ported are the 4 
functions in socket.c. I strongly recommend checking the existing code before 
you start all over again.

Agreed. The code is there - please have a look and let me know what you think.

Nothing. Written just for being used by ap51-flash-ng.
