It only works if I allow DMZ. I am using a D-Link DI-604, and Serv-U FTP 2.5f, and I have tried it with the IP homes setup as the local IP being the home IP and the WAN IP being the passive IP, and setup that way it works fine with the DMZ enabled but no one can connect to it with DMZ disabled at all. So I have also tried with the WAN IP being the home IP and the passive IP being the Local IP and that allows connections through the firewall without DMZ, but will not allow anything to download whether DMZ is enabled or not. So far I am only mapping port 2111 as the ftp port. Anyone have any clue what I am doing wrong?

Router trouble with FTP.
- Thread starter markjs
- Start date
The only way I have been able to setup an FTP server through a router was to enable the machine (that is hosting the FTP server) as the DMZ host. I have to do this also when using remote desktop connections. This allows your one pc to be "seen" outside of your home/private network.
The following site provides a comprehensive info about setting Router, and FTP.
Regrettably it confines itself to a specific Linksys Router.
Never the less the info can be generalized to other Routers.
Setting up an FTP server.
It is very hard to give detailed instructions about Entry Level Network Hardware. Each manufacture has his own "Shticks" about their hardware settings. Each one has his way of organizing the Menus, and assign labels. Reading the Hardware Manuals is essential in order to configure correctly the hardware. Detailed manuals are usually provided on the CD that comes with the hardware. Even better is to log to the manufacture site and look for the latest detailed manual and data sheets.
It is a lot of work, but this is part of the reason that makes the Entry Level Network Hardware so inexpensive.
