event.pull("modem_message") never returns anything (solved...ish)

Question

So i'm working on a rudimentary network system to transmit simple packets of information between computers, ya know a basic network. I've run into the issue however, that its quite simply not working how i'm expecting it too. I've had no problem with OC in the past making several useful tools, but apparently i can't crack wireless networks

 

So here's the current testing environment:

 

Two computers about 5 blocks apart.

one is in the lua shell with a simple =event.pull("modem_message")

Port 52 is open

The other is broadcasting "test" on 52

nothing is happening on the first computer!

 

I'm getting no errors either. and when doing =modem.broadcast(52,"test") it returns true stating that the message was successfully sent. It's just not being recieved for some reason.

 

What could be causing this!!?! D:

 

EDIT: for reference i'm in 1.10.2 and i'm using two addons: Computronics and OCRSDrivers (for refined storage monitoring) both of these are natively supported in 1.11 but not in 1.10 so i have to use the external mods. would they possibly be interfereing?

 

EDIT2: somewhat solved i guess. restarted my client and things seemed to be working all of a sudden. Also mistakenly put event.listen in the title instead of event.pull. my bad!

1. Typo, i got them confused by mistake but was only ever using event.pull. just listed it wrong on here

2. see 1

3. tried that, was set to the default max of 400

 

I restarted my client and that seemed to fix it. i have no idea why it wasn't working and maybe i never will, but thanks for the suggestion either way!
