[mono-android] using emulator to test webclient

When the emulator loses internet access, hit the f8 kit.  That key is one of the keystrokes for the emulator.  It specifically toggles the network connectivity of the emulator.  That way you don't have to go thru the hassle of restarting the emulator.
