External FTPS server connection issue
Posted: 2023-08-24 08:11
Filezilla Client 3.62.2
I am trying to replace Netgear's Readycloud with a simple FTP(S) connection. Netgear's ReadyNAS offers an FTSP server via proftpd. The service is FTPS.
I have configured the server and have tried to connect to the server via my phone (using Files+ and AndFTP) and also from my laptop (using Filezilla). The phone connects to the NAS's WAN address perfectly ok from both apps. Filezilla starts to connect, but then gets a connection timeout. I can connect from Filezilla to the local LAN address perfectly ok though.
I have just tried to connect to another remote FTPS server ( ftps.cs.brown.edu) and get the same timeout.
The connection display shows:

...any ideas as to why? My router would appear to be configured ok, as my phone's apps connect ok. The ReadyNAS seems to be be configured ok as I can connect remotely (via phone) and locally (all devices). Filezilla appears to be configured ok (for local connections anyway!).
