Unable to connect to any external FTP servers
Hi I have a really weird issue where my brand new PC build will not connect to ANY external FTP sites using any FTP software Filezilla, Cuteftp, WinSCP etc other PC's on the same network can connect ...
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Could you try disabling QoS completely from the Anti-Bufferbloat menu please and see if that helps at all?

I am fully out of ideas how can one PC that is hardwired to the XR500 be able to connect and use all my external FTP servers just fine but another PC also hardwired to the XR500 have issues using any of them?
I have tried different, cables, network adapters, WiFi makes no difference but as soon as I remove the XR500 from the network and add any other router I have available I can connect and use all servers just fine.
I have even reset the XR500 to factory settings nothing helps.
Anything else I can try?
- In WAN settings could you toggle IGMP Proxying please? This very well could be the cause.
