ASP.NET for TCP Client with listening - repost

I have a pilot project to test a device OCR result. This is a web app in ASP.NET. The web app will connect to the device via an IP address and port number by using System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient. The socket will open and ready to get the stream. A thread listen is started to read the device OCR result. In my suggestion, you may use ticker or thread listening to capture the OCR result. This is open and you may suggest what best for my case. We have a TCP client in windows based and trying to convert this into asp.net but the app is not able to read even after socket is open. The challenge is to make this TCP to work in web app asp.net. I need you to provide me one asp.net page (prefer in vb.net language) that will connect TCP client and start listen upon page loading and wait for the OCR result to come in from the IP address and port number. Once the thread has read the OCR result it will then display in a textbox and stop the thread and disconnect the TCP client. This is just a simple pilot project. Happy bidding. Thanks.
