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
