I had the same problem with my AVG Antivirus firewall. The only thing needed was to disable AVG network filter driver in vEthernet (Internal Ethernet Port Windows Phone Emulator Internal Switch) network.
You can find it in Control panel -> network and internet -> network sharing center -> change adapter settings. Right click vEthernet (Internal Ethernet Port Windows Phone Emulator Internal Switch), select Properties, uncheck AVG network filter driver.
After that Visual Studio is able to connect Windows Phone Emulator.
follow the following steps to solve this problem 1.go to network and sharing center 2.go to change adapter setting 3.go to v Ethernet (internal Ethernet port windows phone emulator internal switch) 4.right click it and enable it(if already enabled then disable and enable it again).
I had this happen and none of the solutions above helped unfortunately. However, I noticed that in my actual network settings there were duplicate phone emulators. After disabling the duplicates that were unplugged my issue was solved.
control panel -> network and internet -> network sharing center -> change adapter settings: here is where you disable any duplicates you may have running for whatever reason.
I had the same problem and solved it by disabling firewall (AVG). Try this.
