nusb/ether doesnt implement multicast filter.

Yes, same here. Both are wired directly to a dumb switch using link local
addresses. No router.
I tried 225.0.0.1 port 1234 on both ends.
I can't figure out what the contents of the buffer is. Just random bytes?
It is weird that the ifc number gets filled in after pinging the multicast
addres
Chris,
As cinap says:

This is your problem. I believe the Raspberry Pi has its NIC attached
via USB internally. Therefore, multicast won't (currently) work on the
Raspberry Pi.

Thanks Alex, Cinap,
Right, the Pi uses USB for its built in nic.
I wanted to make sure that I have narrowed down where the missing functionality
is. It sounds like I need to have a look at how multicast filtering works with
supported PCI nic cards and apply that to nusb/ether.

You don't have to do full filtering - it's enough to enable the adapter
to receive all multicast messages and the kernel driver will filter out
the uninteresting on
updated the code for multicast and promisc mode in nusb/ether...
