Testing your BlackBerry device application that connects to the internet obviously requires your simulator to initiate a connection. This can be done very easy from Eclipse IDE. Here's what you can do. There are 2 ways:
1. From Properties
Right-click on your project, go to "Properties" -> "Run/Debug Settings", click on your application from the list and click "Edit". Go to the "Simulator" tab, check the "Launch Mobile Data System Connection Service (MDS-CS) with simulator" box and click "OK".
2. From Eclipse IDE folder
Go to %ECLIPSE_DIR%\plugins\net.rim.ejde.componentpack5.0.0_5.0.0.25\components\MDS\ and launch run.bat.
For this case, remember to launch run.bat before you start the simulator.
General Note
The internet access is not global so it can be enabled only for individual projects.
