I've been trying to enable FTP with my new Linksys BEFW11s4 v.2 4 port hub/DSL router. I use Sympatico DSL in Toronto and OS 10.1.5. Can anyone help with step by step idiot prrof instructions. I consider my self a pretty knowledgeable user but after trying for a couple of weeks, I've given up.

What I've done so far:

-Enabled sharing/FTP in Control Panel
-Enabled Service Port Range 20-21 under Advanced Forwarding page for router
-Disabled Block WAN request in Filters

I'm stumped? BTW what address are people supposed to FTP to Linksys info says 192.168.1.100 (where 100 is my computer's DHCP address, but I don't believe that can be it. I've also tried the actual WAN IP address without success.

Thanks in advance for any help
