Unintentional strange characters added to packets during udp communication in Arduino - arduino

Question

Stackoverflow!
Unusual strange characters are added to packets during udp communication in Arduino.
Hi. Stack overflow. I encountered problems that I could not solve while using Udp with Arduino. I have looked up a lot of information to solve this problem. I also tested various cases. But I can not solve it.
The problem occurs from the 24th byte of the packet. The characters exceeding 23 characters are converted into strange characters and the subsequent sentences are not output. Is the packet transmission of udp communication limited to 24 bytes? If so, I am glad, but I want to know how to solve it. Please help me.
The test environment is as follows. Two Arduino are connected via a LAN cable. In addition, the following source code has been uploaded to Arduino. The serial monitor is as follows.

Answer 1

yes you have right, some problem with length 24!!
if you read inside the EthernetUDP.h file, you will see:
#define UDP_TX_PACKET_MAX_SIZE 24
so if you want use more characters, dont use this const, choose your personal size.
change
char packetBuffer[UDP_TX_PACKET_MAX_SIZE];
to
char packetBuffer[50];
or use another define:
#define UDP_MAX_BUFFER 50 //for example
char packetBuffer[UDP_MAX_BUFFER];
