    Is the filezilla server also using the same DNS/DDNS name?

     

    Check that the passive port range for FTP is configured reasonably on the NAS (2-4 passive ports per simultaneously connected device) and that those ports are opened in the firewall. Port numbers should be between 49152 and 65535.

     

    Masquerading might also need to be on if there is a NAT router on the path.  The Filezilla client doesn't need that setting but other clients do.
