Emulator can't connect to web service

I thought this would be a simple conversion from VS 2003, but we have an issue we need help figuring out.
We have a 2.0 web service and a pocket pc application that needs to connect and use its web methods. Problem is, we get "WebException" when trying to connect. The application worked just fine when it was running under the VS 2003 IDE and emulator. Before blaming the conversion process, we made a new sample application and sample web service to test the issue and have the same problem. This seems to occur both on local machines and remote servers.
The error occurs when a call to a web method is made. Any ideas?

You probably have not configured network connection on the new emulator. You can simply cradle the emulator, but in my opinion the best way to go is this one:

As usual, before even trying to run your application please launch pocket IE on emulator or device and type in your WS URL. If you can't reach it your application won't work for sure and you have more network problems to solve.
