Hi,

maybe my experiences from last days may help..

- my web services can be accessed and work fine in LAN envirenment, lets
say with IP in endpoint field "192.168.0.2", the server system with Tomcat

- my web services can be accessed and work fine from WAN, provided that
the port is open and forwarded in the router to my server system with Tomcat

BUT:

- not accessible from WAN out of my company's LAN infrastructure.
  I strongly guess that there are firewall settings that do not allow to
send out on port 80 with a program, only send/reply inside a browser

Maybe it helps to exclude such effects in your search
