Portable networking library

Well this depends on what u need. Do u want a UDP lib or TCP and do u want a complete framework or just send and receive.

The last can be really easily achieved with enet.
In case u want something more i would use RakNet.

Both libs use the udp protokoll which is probably best for fast pased games.

It also depends on the language used.

My favorite C++ portable networking library is ASIO. Here's the website:

http://think-async.com/

It's a relatively low-level library, but beautifully wraps everything up in easy-to-use C++ goodness.

Sorry, c++ and a combination of TCP and UDP, although i'm planning on using mainly UDP, with TCP for chat and login stuff!

Any advice?

ZoidCom deserves to be mentioned I would say

Unfornutately Zoidcom has no free commercial license, but it does have loads of tutorials. But RakNet, is better.
