  You need to be using the standard [MonoBrick Communication Library](http://www.monobrick.dk/software/monobrick/) if you want to connect remotely to the EV3.
  
  You would then need to have the following `using` statement at the top of your code:
  
  ```
  using MonoBrick.Ev3
  
  ```
  
  I believe you are referencing the [MonoBrick EV3 Firmware](http://www.monobrick.dk/software/ev3firmware/) which doesn't need to connect to the brick as it *is* the brick.
