Unable to connect to EC2 t2.micro

Question

Hi, I am running the free t2.micro instance (clear EC2 instance from https://explore.skillbuilder.aws/learn/course/1851/aws-technical-essentials) and cannot connect to the instance using a Public IPv4 address or Public IPv4 DNS. ping and tracert are listed below. I checked the instance property from the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVLD0SHtwIc all are good, no restrictions from firewall. I connected to my internet service provider and they said that this is not something that they restricting.

Thank you for helping me figure out the problem. The solution was pretty easy, there was no server running in the background that would be listening to port 443 (or any other). After starting a simple node js server I was able to get a response from the server by his ip.

I would check four things:

1. Does the Security Group associated with the instance allow ICMP Protocol from your IP address or the internet generally?
2. Is the EC2 in a public subnet? (meaning the subnet has a routing table with a path to the Internet Gateway), eg. 0.0.0.0/0 igw-121231312
3. If using an Elastic IP, is it associated to the EC2 instance you are trying to ping?
4. Check the Network Access Control List (NACL) to see if there are any Deny rules attached to the subnet

This assumes your VPC has an Internet Gateway attached (which would be the case if you used the default VPC).
