WebService connection fails when on battery power.

Question

Hi everyone,

I'm new to these boards. I've got a small problem with something I'm working on in my c# application, and I was hoping maybe someone on here with more experience with WM6/CF than myself might have a solution for me.

The problem:
I have an application which needs to transmit in data from remote locations. To do that, I'm using a WebService, which is working. When I'm working on my handheld plugged in it has no problems establishing the connection to the a wireless, and talking to the Web Service. However, when I'm running on my battery it throws an error saying it couldn't establish a connection to the WebService.

I've been testing the power settings on the device, and nothing is working. Even turning off all of the special battery related settings yields no change.

But, it is consistently failing on battery, and has never failed when either plugged into a wall outlet, or USB connection.

I'm stumped at this point.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Ciao,
Kevin
