Problem with VPN on ASA 5505

I have configured my vpn using the wizard in ASDM, and everything works fine when I connect from a PC on the same subnet as the router's external interface. When I try to connect from a remote PC, phase 1 doesn't even complete. The client is not responding to an IKE_DECODE SENDING Message unless it is plugged into the same switch as the ASA. Here is a diagram to explain the connections...

works: LAN --- ASA 5505 ---- switch ---- VPN client

broken: LAN --- ASA 5505 ---- switch ---- ISP ---- Internet --- VPN client

Here are the first two lines from logs that differ between the working and non-working connections... working:

broken:

I know the client is configured correctly because it works fine when connected to the same subnet as the ASA. Any insight would be much appreciated.
