If this problem is not about the IIS then I should be having problems when calling other sites. I you run the script at the bottom on any machine connected to the internet you will get the same error. That means the client machine is not able to connect to my server.

I wondered if some ports were not reachable on my network causing the problem when the server is trying to respond.

I can use the script below from the server machine to get to any website but the local ones.

If this is not an IIS issue do you think it is more a hardware or software problem?

Thanks again,
Baris
