Hello, as the subject of my thread says, I am attempting to send serial information through my Ethernet port.

I have looked into libraries like QtSerialPort and QSerialPort but I can't find anything that states whether or not these libraries will work with an Ethernet port.

If this is not a possibility, what would you suggest as my best possible alternative?

The serial device is fairly simple, which is accessed at a baud rate of 38400 with no parity, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit. I'm using Qt 4.8.3 on Windows but wouldn't mind upgrading or switching to a linux box if it leads me to a better, simpler solution.

Thank you for any helpful advice...
