Can not connect to FTp server
Posted: 2011-03-08 18:53
I used the FileZilla server 2 weeks ago with no problem.
Now when I where to use the server again, I can not connect to it from outside.
I can login to the server by using my local IP. But when trying to login from another place, the server does not show anything.
I disabled the firewall, but still no connection.
I use a D-Link DIR-635 Router.
There is a Virtual Server that I can set up. Did not use that last time. But it is supposed to be used for things like FTP. I made an attempt with it. Setting the local IP, Port 21, Both UDP and TCP.
There is a Port Forwarding. That is the one I used last, when it did work. I set it with local Port IP, Port 21 for both TCP and UDP.
I also have seen an Inbound filter. Do not know if I need that one. Do not think I had it enabled before. There I can set what remote IP should be allowed in. Really do not know what use it would do.
There might be some problem with the router. It works ok with internet connections and so. But it fails to show anything in the listing of connected wireless clients. I have severar that is accessing the net using the router. It also do not show any log.
I made an attempt to update the firmware. It took a minute, the router restarted, but with the old firmware still there.
Can anyone point me to some obvious thing that I might have missed?
Next stop will be to get help from D-Link.
