Try to make sure you are able to connect to the remote machine before connecting to the web service.

Are you able to access your WCF service in Browser from Remote machine?

Also try by changing settings in web.config of your WCF Service as below.

HTML

<service name="MyServiceName">
behaviorConfiguration="MyServiceBehavior"></service>

HTML

<servicebehaviors>
        
    <behavior name="MyServiceBehavior">
               <servicemetadata httpgetenabled="true" />
    </behavior>
        
</servicebehaviors>

Are you able to access any other Web-Application from that machine remotely? If not then problem seems to be with your Network.
