Isn't this what you are trying to do?

Closes the TCP connection and releases all resources associated with the

[JScript]
public function Close();
Exceptions
Exception TypeCondition
SocketExceptionAn error occurred when accessing the socket. See the Remarks
section for more information.

Remarks
The Close method closes the TCP connection. It calls the Dispose method
passing a true value to release all managed and unmanaged resources
associated with the TcpClient. These resources include the underlying Socket
used for connecting with the remote host, and the NetworkStream used to send
and receive data.
Note If you receive a SocketException, use SocketException.ErrorCode to
obtain the specific error code. Once you have obtained this code, you can
refer to the Windows Socket Version 2 API error code documentation in MSDN
for a detailed description of the error.
Example
[Visual Basic, C#, C++] The following example demonstrates closing a
TcpClient by calling the Close method.
[Visual Basic]
Dim tcpClientD As New TcpClient(AddressFamily.InterNetwork)
      ' Uses the Close public method to close the network stream and socket.
      tcpClient.Close()
   End Sub 'MyTcpClientCommunicator
