omg! this wans''t as easy as i thought

or maybe its just because I''m so tired i dont understand anything
Take a look at this if you want (the example). It shows how to connect two machines (although you can run the client & server on the same machine), but theres a problem with my sending and recieving: the client only recieves one message. But it shows you the basics.

To answer your other question, theres no difference between connecting over a modem, LAN, Internet, loopback, whatever at your level. There is lower down, at the internal sockets layer, but theres nothing to concern yourself with there.
