WCF - Return large data set to Client

Question

The goal is to send the contents of a table as a data set to the client. I get an error from the client application:

"The maximum message size quota for incoming messages (65536) has been exceeded."

Although in the same WCF application retrieving large data amount from the client there is no error. Please see the config file.

I've searched for a solution but only come back to the adjustment of the config file. The WCF application is not reporting any error and the client is reporting the error.

I've tried using wsHttpBinding and basicHttpBinding with no success. I've tried MTOM and Text message encoding.

App Config File for Client

Here is the App.Config file for the client.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.serviceModel>
        <bindings>
            <wsHttpBinding>
                <binding name="WSHttpBinding_IRestore" messageEncoding="Mtom">
                    <security mode="Transport">
                        <transport clientCredentialType="None" />
                    </security>
                </binding>
                <binding name="WSHttpBinding_IProjectProvider">
                    <security mode="Transport">
                        <transport clientCredentialType="None" />
                    </security>
                </binding>
            </wsHttpBinding>
        </bindings>
        <client>
            <endpoint address="https://myServer.com/Restore.svc"
                binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="WSHttpBinding_IRestore"
                contract="RestoreProvider.IRestore" name="WSHttpBinding_IRestore" />
            <endpoint address="https://myServer.com/ProjectProvider.svc"
                binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="WSHttpBinding_IProjectProvider"
                contract="ProjectProvider.IProjectProvider" name="WSHttpBinding_IProjectProvider" />
        </client>
    </system.serviceModel>
</configuration>

As for the binding information for the ProjectProvider service the only difference is "maxBufferSize" which when inserted creates an error.

Usage code in the Client

Public sub GetZips()
    'Get the information from Ops
    Using oProjectProvider As New ProjectProvider.ProjectProviderClient
        MyDataSet = oProjectProvider.GetZipCodeData
        oProjectProvider.Close()
    End Using
    Application.DoEvents()
End sub

I would like to know the client configuration. how do you create a call to the service? We had better apply the configuration on both the client-side and the server-side. Besides, I suspect there is something wrong with the client service endpoint address. Please post the complete client configuration.
In addition, please refer to the below configuration.

<binding maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647" 
         maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
    <readerQuotas maxDepth="2147483647" 
                  maxStringContentLength="2147483647" 
                  maxArrayLength="2147483647" 
                  maxBytesPerRead="2147483647"
                  maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
</binding>

Feel free to let me know if the problem still exists.
