Host doesn't support .Net Framework v4

Question

I have developed a small application using silverlight with .Net framework v4 which was hosted internally. Now I was asked to deploy it to the web host of my company. I found that the web host (NetworkSolutions.com) doesn't support v4! ..

How can I go about solving this issue? .. i mean is there a way to use v2 instead .. i expect this will break my code badly.. (given that I'm also using RIA services (wcf))

It can be a noob question but i'm sorry i'm not that experienced with web hosting. I have always hosted my applications internally.

Well, WCF came in .NET 3.5 - so if they support 3.5 you may not need to change very much. I suggest you:

• Check that the hosting company supports .NET 3.5
• Change the target of your project to .NET 3.5
• Fix up any errors locally - hopefully not too many, if you're not using too many .NET 4 features
• Deploy to the hosting company
