I have a little game project that uses a MVC 4 api server, however since I installed windows 8 / VS12 / WP8 SDK I havent been able to access the server from my app in the emulator, I can however access the deployed webserver.

Is there some sort of default firewall that would prevent me from contacting a localhost server? I just get a NotFound exception when I try, the localhost server works fine in my browser to retrieve some xml object

I have the same code working in windows 7 with vs2010 and wp7 sdk.

To connect to the server I use http://restsharp.org/

    The emulator is running in Hyper-V, which is a virtual machine. It runs it’s own network, and thus your PCs “localhost” isn’t available from inside the virtual machine.
