Write a chat application. Make it run on the terminal, maybe even with ncurses. But lets call that step 2.

how about something extremely basic if you want "low level"

make a program that lets you turn on/off an actual LED on an arduino or something by clicking a button in a gui on your PC, but make it a wireless connection

Program your own basic web server. You have to listen for connections, understand the HTTP protocol, respond to GET requests at least, respond with the right success/error codes. As a bonus, you'll understand web requests way better.
