title: ASP.NET remote COM port access
body: <p>I'm building a website in ASP.NET with backend functionality in C#. The idea is that you can connect a device to your own serial port, then go to the website to send the received data from your serial port to the website.</p>
  
  <p>I made a simple page which can access a serial port but after some thinking I realized I was only accessing the serial port of the computer the server runs on. I'm sure I'll be able to solve this by using two seperate applications, a client and a server. The client will then send the received data through TCP to the server. The problem is that I don't want two seperate applications, I want only one application, the website.</p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure if this is possible, so my question is: Is this possible and how can it be done? Thanks in advance!</p>
