IIS 7 ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT only with public IP

Question

I'm working with WCF on IIS 7.

Previously, I have done a WCF library and set it to work on IIS 7. It works well, also if I use it with our public IP.

Then, I have done a WCF application and set it to work on the same IIS 7. The address is the same, the difference is in the port. This WCF works when I call it with the internal IP, but is I use the external IP, I get a timed out error.

You can try yourself, this is the pubblic address:

http://77.108.40.77:8096/

(if you put 8095 as port, it works).

Why am I getting this? (ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT)

This is my web.config:

Can you help me? Can I post something to you for make clearer the trouble?

Answer 1

I think your port is closed .Check your IP and Port in http://ping.eu/port-chk/ if its status is closed then this msg will be shown . Plz open this Port to solve this problem..
