I actually put the TC back in place as the router - and FTP again worked fine by port forwarding Public TCP port 21 to private TCP port 21. I had previously been using a 3rd Generation Time Capsule - and FTP was working fine with the TC. until I discovered a few days ago that external access to FTP was no longer working - or - at best intermittently working. This is a significant plus - if you have a lot of DHCP reservations and other non-default settings. It has been working great - setup was very quick - and it even copied all of my settings from the TC during the setup process.
I purchased a new Airport Extreme AC several weeks ago (mostly because I wanted it - and not because I needed it). Not sure if it's about firmware or airport utility versions, but the Apple baby-sitter scheme is severely broken this time. I had to startup an old laptop running 10.6 to set it up again in minutes, after an hour of repeated resets and startups - and despair. I should add that while testing, i had to factory reset the base station, and that the airport utility in 10.8 never managed to fix the blinking orange led. However Transmit is not successful unless you manually specify that you want to connect through active mode, and Aceplayer absolutely never manages to get through, there is not passive/active option in that software.
I must note that Fetch and iStorage are seamlessly successful in both cases, they seem to auto-detect that they must switch modes by themselves. (Angry? a bit.)Īnyway, found out that i can connect from outside to my NAS through FTP active mode, when i can also connect when at home through passive mode. I will need some clarification on that as well, since when i was using a motorola WLAN modem, everything was running smooth, for years, and now I'm fighting with a supposedly friendly product. Reading this post i noted that you suggested a solution for opening up ftp passive ports.
All right, I'm having similar issues and the situation is a bit more clear.
