i recently began using SmartFTP and all was fine. i then installed a Linksys wireless access point router (BEFW11S4 ver.2) and couldn't make any headway at all with respect to making an ftp connection. i then changed some settings on the router by going to setup>advanced>forwarding>port triggering. i opened ports 20-21 by entering those numbers in the 'trigger port range and 'incoming port range' boxes. this seems to have goten me a bit closer, but i still get the following log:

i read another posting from someone with the same router who seems to think that the problem is unsolveable and unique to this particular router, but i have trouble believing this. the answer must lie somewhere in the settings to either SmartFTP or the router. any help would be greatly appreciated.
