I have a program for Windows Application with the Bank uses a WCF service.
Several Windows 7 client using this service are working well, one of the Windows XP client, and when the service is connected and started working, service to any of the other client does not respond; until Windows XP client relationship is discontinued.
Thanks and respect.

I can't seem to get my Windows Phone 8 app to successfully connect to my wcf service, and I'm wondering if it is because I haven't yet started paying to host the wcf service online. I can connect to the service when I use the WP8 emulator, but not when I load the app onto a device. Should the device be working or do you think it's because I am not yet hosting the service online?
Maybe that's because your wcf service is accessed through localhost when using the emulator.Then, your device has no access to localhost, if I'm not mistaken, which could explain why your device could not connect to the service.The way to solve this could be to host your service online, as you've already figured.
I am developing some kind of communication and data-interchange system to use in various applications that my company is producing. There will be SignalR hub for messaging and WCF service for file streaming.
I was thinking of developing a Hub library in .NET 4.5. Also I plan to enable Hub hosting in some windows process and IIS.
Thing that bothers me is that I have to support Windows XP clients, so I cannot use .NET 4.5 for developing a client library.
My question is: Are there bad effects of providing a .NET 4.0 client library for all clients, even though there are more clients with Windows 7 or Windows 8? My concern is about performance and features - am I going to lose any of that if I go with .NET 4.0 client?
i'm developing a Windows phone 8 application which consume my wcf service.
Can i host my service locally on my laptop ( using iis express ) and use my phone consume the service?
I can connect to service from wp8 emulator, but it doesn't work when i deploy and test on my phone.
I believe this is a result from your consumed service on the emulator having a direct access to your localhost ip (127.0.0.1), but when you move the software to run on the device, it doesn't find the service in that IP anymore.
This page has a lot of information on the configuration of this matter and probably what you're looking for:

I'm quite new to WCF currently studying Learning WCF. Maybe I missed something while reading about hosting, but it's not very clear to me if XP clients can consume services hosted on IIS 7 (windows 7 machine).
Does the operating system of the client play any role when it comes to consuming services hosted in different enviroments?
Yes they can consume them, no the OS should not matter.
The reasons being that the services are served using platform independent mechanisms, such as returning data in SOAP/XML/other standardised formats.
I'm trying to develop and deploy a WCF service using VS2008 and Vista home premium. I don't have IIS running and understand I don't need to if I manually configure the WCF app ... using netsh.exe I believe.
Can anyone give me clear guidance on how to go from the development project in VS2008 to a useable service?
Many thanks.
A WCF service needs a host to run. As IIS is out of the question you have a couple of possibilities left:
Write a Windows NT service and host it there
Write a managed application which will host your service (less robust)
As far as netsh.exe is concerned I don't see much relevance with WCF.
