Can someone share a link or a complete code to a working example of Indy(or other) server/client code which will allow me to send data from one IP to another IP.
What you are asking for is very broad, and there are already plenty of examples and tutorials floating around if you search around. If you can't find anything, then you are not searching very well.

Then you are not using it correctly.

Things that Indy handles well.

You are aware, aren't you, that hosting a server on a private computer requires cooperation from your network router (port forwarding, etc) if you are trying to access the server from outside the LAN, and also requires approval from your ISP (allow ports to be accessed, possibly extra fees, etc) if you are trying to access the server over the public Internet.

Why are you trying to handle this with private servers, instead of hosting the updates and activations on a public Internet server that your customers can then connect to?

There is nothing "simple" about networking. If you don't understand what you are doing, you are not going to succeed with this.

Nobody can answer that, since you didn't show the actual example (how many people still have D7 anyway???), or explain the actual problem(s) you are having with it.
If you are having a *specific* problem, please describe it in detail, and maybe someone will be able to help you.
