I am trying to implement a wrapper class that will just connect to a TCP server and wait for data. After sending data from the server, I will receive this data and pass it on to subscribers of my class.
It all works. Now I want to add external functions to the "reset" of this class on a timer (force reconnection so often) to maintain a live connection. My idea is that the method Initcan be called as many times as needed to get the reset socket. However, I get various exceptions with this.
Class Code:

this.LastDataReceivedOn = DateTime.UtcNow;

Exceptions I get. The first exception when you click the 2nd button from the handler inDataReceived
IAsyncResult .
