I have been searching for ways to connect a micro-controller board to the internet and found various ways that people do this.

What I am trying to do is connect the board via serial comm port to a PC that is connected to the internet so that the board can be controlled from any other pc on the internet.

I read something about people using telnet to make the board accessible to the internet maybe the other way around. I'm not too familiar with internet technologies, so I am here to seek help.

Can anyone suggest appropriate material that I can use to learn how to do this?

For the moment, I have created a No-ip account, but I am not sure if it is any help to my mission.

Thanks for your attention

PS : I found this website http://www.societyofrobots.com/robotforum/index.php?topic=93 8.0 that makes me think it maybe achievable with the Web package of U++. Especially the post by Dunk
