- FileZilla is attempting to connect to a private address (192.168.42.98) on port 53175.
Are you running it on your local LAN? - No i was running it on a laptop using my phone as a modem, and my home lan is not a 192.168.x.x ip range :) i have tryed several settings and changin pasive ports etc. But stil no use, i am running out of ideas, the weird thing is that it has been working for a very long time with my old isp where i lived bfore
Thank you for ur interest, hope u have some suggestions :) - With FileZilla you don't need to set masquerade at all, so try unsetting it.
Is 53175 an appropriate passive port? - my pasive port range is 5000 to 8000
- So the passive port is wrong, and the IP address is wrong. Are you sure you are connecting to the right external IP address?
Also, I am wondering if there is a passive FTP proxy on the path, which is possibly corrupting the messages???
If you are using port 21 for the initial connection (FTP default), try changing it to something else. - hmm yeah, i know what u mean, looks strange to me to, :) well the outside ip is the right 1 im sure, im beginning ti think it is a problem with my router,(WNDR3700v3) i have testet loads of port combos, and i finally found something that works!
Like this
Port: 21
Pasive: 5000 - 8000
Masq: my External ip
It works when i use the routers own predefined port forward funktion thingy, where it adds the port "21" by default. If i change the port... it dont work anymore!
Now, i do like that i works, but tbh i do not want to be using port 21 for my ftp server as it is prolly the most bottet port on theweb.. ;)
But atleast now i know its not the readynas thats acting up, ima gonna try and google what settings i need to change in the router to make ftp work on other ports than 21 - Right, i found out that i had to forward all my pasive ports aswell... i have no idea why, but now it works :D
Thank you very much for replying and trying to help me out ;)
The basic principle is that any connections that are inbound (from the internet through the router to your home network) need to use forwarded ports. Outbound connections (from your home network through your router to the internet) shouldn't be forwarded (and don't need to be).shapcah wrote: ...Right, i found out that i had to forward all my passive ports as well... i have no idea why, but now it works...
Passive port connections are made from the client to the NAS, so the ports have to be forwarded.
Active port connections are made from the NAS outbound to the client - they don't need to be forwarded in your router, but they won't work when you are double-firewalled (for instance, when using the client in your office).
