Client check if server socket is open C#

[abdeen]

i want the client check if the server socket is online or not , and if it's not it's wait 20 sec then check again .. i tried to figure it out by making this code but still doesn't make what i want ... i think there is a good solution better than the one i made .

PHP Code:

        public bool Connect(string IP, int Port)
        {
            int tries = 0;
            IPAddress ipAddress = IPAddress.Parse(IP);
            IPEndPoint ipEndPoint = new IPEndPoint(ipAddress, Port);
            while (tries == 0 && !Connection.Connected)
            {
                try
                {
                    Connection.BeginConnect(ipEndPoint, new AsyncCallback(AsyncConnect), null);
                if (Connection.Connected)
                {
                    return true;
                }
                }
                catch
                {
                    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(20000);
                }
            }
            return false;
        } 


Edit : i have done it after editing my code to ...

PHP Code:

public bool Connect(string IP, int Port)
        {
            int tries = 0;
            IPAddress ipAddress = IPAddress.Parse(IP);
            IPEndPoint ipEndPoint = new IPEndPoint(ipAddress, Port);
            while (tries == 0 && !Connection.Connected)
            {
                try
                {
                    HashSocket.Connect(ipEndPoint);
                    if (HashSocket.Connected)
                    {
                        Connection.BeginConnect(ipEndPoint, new AsyncCallback(AsyncConnect), null);
                        return true;
                        if (Connection.Connected)
                        {
                            return true;
                        }
                    }
                }
                catch
                {
                    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(20000);
                }
            }
            return false;
        }

So put it in a loop, gosh...

Jesus ******* christ.

while (!soc.TryConnect(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Parse("127.0.0.1"), 9988))) {
    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(2000);
}
// use soc as client socket ...
