Hi,
Sorry if you've already tried this, but often when people experience a problem loading wsdls at work and not at home, then it can turn out to be that you need to set SoapUI's HTTP proxy settings, rather than a firewall which normally allows http traffic.

Thanks for the answer. I have already tried setting it to 'None'. Should I try the 'Manual' option instead? And if yes, how do I set it up?

Ok, no problem, lets hope this is all it is, common issue.
I tend to use MANUAL, as you say. Then it is normally a case of setting HOST (your prxy hostname or IP), PORT e.g. 8080, user and password (often your company login details, assuming they match the proxy ones)
If you are unsure of these values, I tend to check what your browser is using e.g. in network settings, if the browser can see the internet via a proxy, then these details also need to be provided to SoapUI.
You might try the AUTOMATIC option, this might lookup the hostname / port for you, but you would still need the proxy user/password details.
Cheers,Rup

I have tried using the MANUAL settings for the proxy with no success unfortunately... Although, when it is asking me to fill the DOMAIN field during the authentication, I leave that blank since I don't know if it is necessary.
UPDATE: I have configured the firewall settings with a different IP address and it is working. Sorry for not replying for so long,I hadn't worked on the issue the past weeks and started again now. Thanks for the support!
