I am not sure why you are having problems. udp is the standard for both video and voice over IP.

udp and tcp are part of tcp/ip and have universal support in all ROS routing protocols.

Are you sure you are not looking for Multicast?

It doesn't work that way.

You don't configure udp on the RouterBoard. It is just a router and will route what the end device requests. If the end device requests udp on port 5000 then that is what the router will route. If the end device requests tcp on port 5001 then that is what the router will route.

That is chosen by the programmers making the end device. They might allow you to change it depending on their code.

do you have any firewall rules on any rb-s on the path? Maybe that is blocking your udp packets.

Sounds to me like they are using NAT and need to setup port forwards?
