Dale,

I can suggest a workaround. Create another layer on both client and server ends, dedicating a control on each end for the messaging. Send your broadcast using UDP on another port.

BTW, I have also seen this and your wait states of whatever form seem a fact of life. Will it be fixed? I doubt it...
