Looking for some Criticism on my Networking Classes

Question

Hi all,
I wrote these two classes to simplify network communication a bit. It seems to work (only transfers strings atm) except one day it stopped working all together and im not sure why. 

Any constructive Criticism would be greatly appreciated.
