FileZilla Forums

Hi,

I'm trying to set up an FTP server from my home computer that I can access remotely. I've got this far, and now I'm stuck! I'm using Win 10, Apple Airport Express into Virgin Media Hub 3 (on Modem mode).

Any help greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Matt

Make sure the port range configured in FileZilla Server for the Passive mode is forwarded correctly on the router. Here are two sites with instructions for Apple AirPort routers on port forwarding: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3415 https://portforward.com/apple/airport-extreme/ .
If the router doesn't let you configure a range, you'll have to make multiple single port forwardings for the entire range, but in this case just use a range of 10 ports for testing and then adjust for your use case.

Make sure the account FileZilla Server runs under (SYSTEM by default) has full access to the physical directories you define as resources in the configuration. Also make sure the Controlled Folder Access (a Windows feature) doesn't block anything related to FileZilla Server and the resources.
