What FTP client are you using?

I AM OUT OF IDEAS. HELP!
Note that with passive FTP ports, the masquerading can be set up for either inside the router or outside the router, but not both. However, if you set up the NAS for inside-the-router (the default),the FileZilla client will work properly outside-the-router as well- it detects and works around the issue.
