There should be a forwarding tab somewhere

like forward ports "xxxx" to "xxxx" to "IP of ftp server".

"IP of server" should have a fixed IP ... no DHCP !

Virtual server tab

what you did there is good
Server IP: is IP of the PC you want people to FTP to

service port: 21 , is okay if only telenet people need to connect to it

if you want everybody to able to connect
change the port in your FTP server to 2121
and in the Virtual server tab, change the 21 to 2121

and is this all i have to do?

what with my ip from telenet that changes constantly?

jmke

that you , unfortantely, cannot change
be sure to give them the correct IP each time

WAN IP can be found here

Or install something like "no-ip" if you like a fixed IP.
You set up something like "kipniftp.no-ip.org" and the people that want to connect use that url AND the port 2121 to access your server. You do not have to bother about the dynamic IP telenet gives you. The no-ip-client redirects them to your current IP.

... it's free and easy.

cool, I didn't know it worked behind a firewall/router

Only had to adjust the software firewall for no-ip.
No settings to change in the router itself.

I never had any problem with it.
