Hello, Did you have enable the ping on your WAN interface ? Did you have an administrator with the permitted IP with the IP of your branch office (on the admin configuration, you can restrict the access from specific IP) ? The ping is enabled only from IP with an administrator who allowed to connect to the appliance.

I mentioned this on the previously in your other thread but figured I would touch base in here and ask here as well. Are you just trying to ping from wan interface to wan interface or are you trying to do a vpn configuration between the two locations?

Do you have ping enabled on Administrative Access on the Fortigate' s wan interface? If you can ping from one way then connectivity is not the issue.
