No bytes are received when connected to IPSEC dialup VPN with FortiOS 7.6.4 using FortiClient

Hi,

 

I'm experimenting a new weird issue with an IPSEC dialup VPN created on a FortiGate 100F with FortiOS 7.6.4. The thing is that I can reach a connection with the FortiClient v7.4.3.1790, and my connection is able to send Bytes but it's not receiving any Bytes. I've been trying several configuration using the IKEv1 and IKEv2, and unfortunately, using IKEv2 is not connecting and using IKEv1 I was able to have a connection but only is sending Bytes and not receiving. Any idea or solution will be are welcome... One more thing, I already reviewed the article ID 352403 posted by Stephen_G, about a similar situation but, my configuration of the FortiClient is the same to the configuration suggested in that article, and it's not working... Please see the snapshots below...

 

Thank you in advance for all your help...

Better to switch to IKEv2 ASAP. FortiClient 7.4.4+ will not support IKEv1 anymore.

Thank you so much M.B., I have created two new locations using FortiGate 100F with FortiOS 7.6.4 and creating the IPSec with IKEv2 and both are working perfectly. However, the original location with the issue, continue not working despite I deleted the IPSec with IKEv1 and everything related to this original configuration. In this devise I have running a Virtual IP to have a remote connection to one server used for the Security Cameras Company, and I don't know if this can be affecting the IPSec connection...
