[C#] raise event at incomming connection?

this Socket.listen works, but it also locks up - completely.
is there any way to make something raise an event that would come when 'listen' would have ended?
(probably, but how?)

...The server is built with an asynchronous socket, so execution of the server application is not suspended while it waits for a connection from a client. ...

Incidentally, I thought you were looking to raise your own events within a class before reading your post. For that, this walkthrough has been useful to me.

how do you find out the speed of the connection? if it is at all possible..
I had thought to send some test data and clock it, but it went all weird, so.. any tips?
