clueless, glad to know that this works for you. I too have the same Belkin router as you and use BPFTP. I've set up all of the port forwarding on the router and BPFTP for passive (port forwarding ports 20, 21, 50000-50049; specified my external ip address for passive and port ranges 50000-50049 on BPFTP). My ftp site can be accessed if the connection from the client is via active ftp, but fails miserably via passive ftp. Via active, the client can login and view folders that they rights to just fine. Via passive, the client sees the login screen, tries to login, then gets an error saying that they do not have access to the folder. Any ideas on this?
