Hello All,

I have had this error both on emulator and a Motorola Droid while
using a WIFI connection.  I have surrounded the http request with WIFI
state checks and before and after WIFI is reported state 3
(WIFI_STATE_ENABLED) and a connection speed of 54 . I have also
confirmed, using an adb shell with the emulator, that the emulator
cannot ping the website in question giving a domain resolution error.
To compare notes with Ankur, is the server on your LAN and the IP used
internal? mine is.

I have also tried AndroidHttpClient which does work on the same url.

-Dan
