First, As android is based on linux, can I ask a question about it here?
My Android wireless tablet (Archos 70 @£99) seems to be doing UDP floods
on to my router. Has anyone experienced similar?

Second, I want to know if it really is the tablet, so am considering
putting wireshark on the laptop. It looks like a standard package, but
though there is an 'Airpcap' driver for Windows versions, I don't know
whether it will work on wireless under linux.

Does anyone have any experience of this?


LUGs are about promoting all things Linux and Android is now a major player. It probably will work fine under Android and wireless but have you tried running netstat as root to see what the tablet is doing?

netstat -aunp


udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1900 0.0.0.0:* 26926/amarok udp 0 0 192.168.1.108:49152 0.0.0.0:* 26926/amarok udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:514 0.0.0.0:* 1155/rsyslogd udp 0 0 192.168.122.1:53 0.0.0.0:* 2127/dnsmasq udp 0 0 192.168.1.108:53 0.0.0.0:* 1633/named udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* 1633/named udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:67 0.0.0.0:* 2127/dnsmasq

you can repeat for TCP

netstat -atnp

From the list you might be able to determine what process is causing them and turn it off/remove if not used.
