well, you'd need a network card driver.... and then write the TCP\IP and UDP communication routines

I think a good book that would help implement a TCP/IP Stack is the
Linux TCP/IP Stack Commentary
It will give you actual code on linux's tcp.ip stack and some information about the code
hope this kinda gives some insight on this, good luck!

Well my personal choice is The Protocols (TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 1) by W. Richard Stevens, (TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2: The Implementation, of famous BSD's TCP/IP 10000+ lines of solid code, But don't think it is needed to you to test and have network support! Moreover it's fun to develope it yourself, like it's fun to have "your own" kernel!)
You can have ARP+IP+TCP and your library to develope network enabled applications, say FTP server. check out google for other implementation. (Assumed that you have network driver ready!)
