I have a connection string but I keep getting an error when I try to load a page.

<add name="connString" connectionString="Data Source=10.168.1.67; Database=xxx; UserID=xxx; Password=xxxxxx"/>

I'm with TSOHost.
 
10.168.1.67 is the internal ip for it, which you are supposed to use for an external connection, according to TSOHost.

A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
 
I've read on the TSOHost forums that you need to use 10.168.1.67, using the external IP supposedly causes a time out, but it's worth a shot, I guess.
