Well, you are right about using Sockets.
But can you be more specific? I recommend you to take a look at Socket Class and its methods.

Which protocol are you planning to use? UDP? TCP?

If you use udp you have two options of connection, synchronous and asynchronous. To know more about it, look at this:

I have written a tutorial using asynchronous communication here:

On the other hand, if you want a TCP protocol, I may have done something in the past as well... I'm not sure if it fits to you, look:

As I said, if you could be more specific about your application, I'm glad to help! :)
