Connection Status SoapHttpClientProtocol / HttpWebClientProtocol

Question

I have a WebService (.NET CF 3.5) link based on SoapHttpClientProtocol. My question is: is there a way to determine if a connection to a WebService is established other than calling a web method? Is it possible at any time to verify that the basic connection is established and get its status?

You can check the communication status on the client.

using (XServiceSoapClient client = new XServiceSoapClient())
{
   client.State;
}

public enum CommunicationState
{
    // Summary:
    //     Indicates that the communication object has been instantiated and is configurable,
    //     but not yet open or ready for use.
    Created = 0,
    //
    // Summary:
    //     Indicates that the communication object is being transitioned from the System.ServiceModel.CommunicationState.Created
    //     state to the System.ServiceModel.CommunicationState.Opened state.
    Opening = 1,
    //
    // Summary:
    //     Indicates that the communication object is now open and ready to be used.
    Opened = 2,
    //
    // Summary:
    //     Indicates that the communication object is transitioning to the System.ServiceModel.CommunicationState.Closed
    //     state.
    Closing = 3,
    //
    // Summary:
    //     Indicates that the communication object has been closed and is no longer
    //     usable.
    Closed = 4,
    //
    // Summary:
    //     Indicates that the communication object has encountered an error or fault
    //     from which it cannot recover and from which it is no longer usable.
    Faulted = 5,
}

I am sure that the connection is not made if you do not call the method on the interface. Moreover, the connection is based on HTTP.
