Ok im having alot of issues here.I usually dont need help with this kind of stuff but i dont know what else to do anymore and need help in seeing if i am doing something wrong or what the deal is.Ok so im trying to beable to FTP to my buddies machine at his house from mine at my house.Here is our set up.
-HIS-
Laptop w/Belkin 802.11g card>>Belkin wirless router>>Cable Modem
Running Filezilla Server software on Windows XP
Router: Port 21 is forwarded his laptops internal IP 192.168.2.2
Mcafee Firewall: Port 21 is open
Static IP for laptop but not for router. (should this be changed in anyway?)
-Mine-
Desktop w/D-link 802.11b USB>>Linksys router>>Cable Modem
Running Filezilla Client software on Windows XP
Router: Port 21 is forwarded to my internal IP 192.168.1.103
Mcafee Firewall: Port 21 is open
PC does not have static IP and router is also setup as DHCP.(Should I change any of this?)
Is there anything im missing or doing wrong?I sit here at my PC and so far have not even been able to connect yet.What are some things I could check? What else can I do to get this working?I have tried other programs and still no luck in actually establishing a connection with his system.I also have run a port scan against his routers IP and it doesnt pick up on port 21 being open.I dont get why this isnt working.Any ideas, anything at all?Help would be greatly appreciated.
