C# store app webservice username not provided

When I try to access a webservice I get the following error message:

The username is not provided. Specify username in ClientCredentials.

I do make new credentials as seen in the following code:

public AppWebService_PortClient openConn2()
{
    BasicHttpBinding binding = new BasicHttpBinding();

    binding.Security.Mode = BasicHttpSecurityMode.TransportWithMessageCredential;
    BasicHttpSecurityMode sMode = binding.Security.Mode;

    EndpointAddress adress = new EndpointAddress("myURL");

    AppWebService_PortClient client = 
        new AppWebService_PortClient(binding, adress);

    client.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential = 
        new System.Net.NetworkCredential("Username", "Password", "Domain");
    string userName = 
        client.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential.UserName;
    //client.ClientCredentials.Windows.AllowedImpersonationLevel 
        //= TokenImpersonationLevel.Delegation;

    return client;
}

if i read out the credentials as in string userName i get the right username. Why do i get that error?

You should probably use

client.ClientCredentials.UserName.UserName = "Username";
client.ClientCredentials.UserName.Password = "Password";

instead.

Looks a bit like this issue: Setting ClientCredentials: getting "Username is not provided" error

Which had the following "solution". Which might apply to your case.:

Do you have security mode, clientCredentialtype configured appropriately in your configuration files? Here is a blog post that very closely matches your question. I hope this helps!

Actually there're three causes with my application:

Security mode was not appropriae. Client credential type was not appropriate. The call missed passing the required Username and password.
