Are you using a default gateway ?
Are you sure this gateway supports multicast ?
See for example http://www.sockets.com/err_lst1.htm#WSAENETUNREACH :
"""
WSAENETUNREACH (10051) Network is unreachable. 

Berkeley description: A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable 
network. 

WinSock description: Almost same as Berkeley. For WinSock, this error is 
equivalent to Berkeley's EHOSTUNREACH error, the catch-all error for 
unreachable hosts. "You can't get there from here." 

TCP/IP scenario: The local network system could generate this error if there 
isn't a default route configured. Typically, though, WinSock generates this 
error when it receives a "host unreachable" ICMP message from a router. The 
ICMP message means that a router can't forward the IP datagram, possibly 
because it didn't get a response to the ARP request (which might mean the 
destination host is down). Note: this error may also result if you are trying 
to send a multicast packet and the default gateway does not support multicast 
(check your interface configuration). 
"""

By the way, when you submit this kind of issue, it's a lot easier to analyse if 
you provide a sample code.
