This has nothing to do with CSharp specifically. Nor is there any question regarding coding. (moving to networking)

It's really a question for google or wikipedia.

Thanks a lot...But since the network adapters can be programmed in C/C++ i need to explore the thinks in C#...... So i need to know more about it.

It sounds like the best place to start would be by Google searching something like "network data transfer tutorial" and downloading WireShark and looking at packets yourself.

What are you looking for? How data is broken up into packets (which a library would handle for you)? How to get your program to interface with an ethernet adapter (though various library calls, again)? Or just a simple tutorial on data/packets and how they're transferred?

Well, obviously those would be dependent on the language you're using - I'd recommend picking which one you're most familiar with and Google searching "<language> network library".

That should give you what you need. If you're of equal comfort with all 3, I'd recommend Java - it handles a lot of stuff for you, and gives a good idea of all the steps involved. Then you can go back to C++ later and see how all the stuff Java handled for you works, if you're interested.

I don't understand what you're trying to do - you can use that lib to parse the data, you can pull that information from there. If you're looking to send the data, that depends on what you're trying to do - TCP or UDP, etc...

So what are you attempting to accomplish with this?

Hello All, I am currently looking for writing an application that will act like a network bridge. Meaning, I have 2 network adapters and i want all thing from 1 adapter will pass directly to the other adapter (both ways). Wandered if anyone has written something like that, or can tell me where to read about it, or maybe c# has a simple class for accesing network adapters and doing those connectios.
