FTP Upload?
I've got a dual wan connection and I've got the router set to forward port 21 to my best internet upload connection.. but it isn't working and.. I notice that my ftp program invents ports numbers ranging all over.. currenty using filezilla for ftp..
Any easy suggestions on a fix? What are the ftp port numbers all over? As they seem to all go out on my slow internet connection because I don't know the numbers to set in the router..

The passive port ranges are usually set in the range 30000 to 50000.

With most FTP clients (FileZilla included), you can configure which ports they use for PASV transfers. Also, for the FTP server, you'll need to configure what ports it can use for PASV, then forward that range to your FTP server's IP in your router (of course, along with port 21).
Can you provide us with a detailed outline of your setup/configuration as well as FTP server and client logs of a transaction?

The router I'm using is a computer.. pfsense.. I'm a little confused though cause they tell me.. you can't send the ftp out wan2 which doesn't make sense.. since it routes other ports like smtp

I don't have configuration ability on the host end that I know off.. this isn't a dedicated/vps server.. it's just basic hosting..
