Need FTP Server Help

[daniel_owen_uk]

Right this is really starting to get on my nerves.

FTP server is set up ok, using port 5555.

Its visible and I can connect on my LAN no problems.

I have an actiontec router (supplied by UK Online).

I have forwarded port 20,5555 & 60000-62000 (for passive mode).

All ports are forwarded for both tcp and udp.

Firwall is set to basic (which according to the manual means only NAT).

I can't connect to the server using an FTP client or telnet over the internet.

Tech support at actiontec say its an "advanced" call and want $30.

Anyone got any idea?

does your ISP allow these ports to be seen on the internet ?

[daniel_owen_uk]

Yes, they block 80, 8080 and 3xxx (forget the exact port but its proxy server default).

21 is fine and 5555 is too.

[daniel_owen_uk]

Just to add something GRC shields up test sees the port (5555) as stealthed.

[daniel_owen_uk]
