In this article, I will explain how to create UDP packets and then send them to a remote server through the Internet using WINPCAP for Windows. The code has been tested to work with Windows XP SP2 and Vista SP1 on Linksys routers, and on Toshiba modems connected directly to the Internet. Please note that the code here is very minimalistic, and can be greatly expanded depending on your needs. The reason I use WINPCAP in this article is that it solves the issue of Winsock for Windows (XP SP2 and above) not allowing raw UDP packets to be sent (in Linux, you can just use regular sockets). With WINPCAP, it is possible to specify your own source IP and source hardware addresses in packets.

SharpPcap tutorial: a step by step guide to using SharpPcap
The text of this tutorial is taken directly from WINPCAP's official tutorial but is modified to show the C# use of the SharpPcap library. All examples can be downloaded together with SharpPcap source code from SharpPcap 's homepage. The WINPCAP library must be installed before attempting to run any of these examples, so please download and install the latest version from WINPCAP's download page.
SharpPcap was written and tested using .NET v1.1 and Windows 2000/XP. I have no idea about other .NET and Windows versions. If you do try it, please report your results.
