Connecting a computer to a robot

[Dawz 0]

I was wondering if there was a way to connect a computer to a robot. 

What I want to do is have a program within the robot getting parameters from user input from the computer. I don't want the computer to run multiple programs to control the robot.

For example, have a robot ask for direct user input into a function, in which it would be entered from a computer. 

I noticed there are multiple forms of connection cards, can I use one of them. If so how do I set them up to connect?

Thanks

Linked cards or Wireless Networking Cards could both work last that I knew. If you used the Wireless, you would have to define a port and from there I'm not too sure, however.
