+-------------------
+Ok, it seems I made a mistake in the sample code, that code never
+throws exceptions, they are thrown when EndGetResponse is called. So
+if I move around the above try/catch pair around the EndGetResponse
+call I can catch the exception (in Mono). So the problem here is
+different, if you don't catch the exception though, Mono keeps running
+the code without throwing a network error exception on the console,
+whilst .NET does, although if you catch it, it works, so I'm not sure
+what the problem here is. Sorry for the bad sample!
+----end of the comment----

+However, in my test I called EndGetResponse() and the exception wasn't
+thrown anyway. I'm attaching the test case i used and will try to get
+a simpler one that doesn't require System.Net code.
