Answer 1

You could try these settings (they are paired to be used in pairs)

BindingProviderProperties.REQUEST_TIMEOUT
BindingProviderProperties.CONNECT_TIMEOUT

BindingProviderProperties should be from com.sun.xml.internal.WS.client

Or the strings for JBoss:

javax.xml.ws.client.connectionTimeout
javax.xml.ws.client.receiveTimeout

All properties to be put on getRequestContext() in milliseconds.

(BindingProvider)wsPort).getRequestContext().put(BindingProviderProperties.REQUEST_TIMEOUT, yourTimeoutInMillisec);

For JBoss specifically, you might want to use the property StubExt.PROPERTY_CLIENT_TIMEOUT from org.jboss.ws.core.StubExt. See this thread for details.
