I would start by researching TCP/IP. I personally don''t like Direct Play. I program directly for Winsock, which provides an api very much like that of standard Unix sockets.
DirectX is best for the graphics, input device, music and sound.
What type of Multiplayer game are you trying to create?
-Manowar
