The underlined code is causing a build error. basically it looks like it expects the ip to be in a different format.

Any help please.

VB Code:
  1. Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
  2.         'Put user code to initialize the page here
  3.  
  4.  
  5.        [U] Me.Connect( 82.47.247.163, "Fish paste")[/U]
  6.     End Sub
  7.     Shared Sub Connect(ByVal ip As IPAddress, ByVal message As String)
  8.         Try
  9.             ' Create a TcpClient.
  10.             ' Note, for this client to work you need to have a TcpServer
  11.             ' connected to the same address as specified by the server, port
  12.             ' combination.
  13.  
  14.             Dim port As Int32 = 9100
  15.             Dim client As New TcpClient
  16.             client.Connect(ip, port)
