          Your are connecting from where : LAN ? Somewhere on the Internet ?
          Using your WAN IP ?
          You have a pfSense firewall rule that open port 1194 (TCP and/or UDP - see image) ?
          The special one for you (and me btw) : do you have another router in front of pfSense ? And if so, did you open and NAT port 1194 to pfSense on that router ?
