go - dial tcp i/o timeout with HTTP GET request

Question

Running into some error, I must be overlooking something. How can I debug this? Dropping connections?

I read the following:
golang - Why net.DialTimeout get timeout half of the time?
Go. Get error i/o timeout in server program
golang get massive read tcp ip:port i/o timeout in ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Locating the "read tcp" error in the Go source code
Getting sporadic "http: proxy error: read tcp: i/o timeout" on Heroku

Error created here: https://github.com/golang/go/blob/b115207baf6c2decc3820ada4574ef4e5ad940ec/src/net/net.go#L179

Goal: Send a Get request to a url.
Expected result: return body in JSON.
Encountered problem: I/O timeout

It works in Postman
Edit: I added a modified timeout...

Edit2: traced error

Postman request:

GET /v2/XRP-EUR/candles?interval=1h HTTP/1.1
Host: api.bitvavo.com

    "time"
)

func main() {
    url := "https://api.bitvavo.com/v2/XRP-EUR/candles?interval=1h"
    method := "GET"

    client := &http.Client {
    }
    client.Timeout = time.Second * 60
    req, err := http.NewRequest(method, url, nil)

    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        return
    }
    res, err := client.Do(req)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        return
    }
    defer res.Body.Close()

    body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        return
    }
    fmt.Println(string(body))
}

result:

Get "https://api.bitvavo.com/v2/XRP-EUR/candles?interval=1h": dial tcp 65.9.73.10:443: i/o timeout

Answer 1

Local environment, firewall not allowing golang to dial tcp..
It still allowed the url to be resolved to an ip though (DNS)
