Hi Dexter,
I just tested with an old firmware version, after which I had to forward the specific ports for vpn again and finally it worked! Probably there is some issue with port forwarding in the latest firmware version, but the firmware version with which vpn forwarding is working fine right now is version V1.0.1.6_1.0.4!
