Maybe you have to look in to passive ftp. ////jerry > > This is the status info from the router. > > LAN > MAC Address > 00-0F-3D-5B-E3-BC > IP Address > 192.168.0.1 > Subnet Mask > 255.255.255.0 > DHCP Server > Enabled > > WAN > MAC Address > 00-0F-3D-5B-E3-BD > Connection > DHCP Client Connected > IP Address > 24.69.77.165 > Subnet Mask > 255.255.252.0 > Default Gateway > 24.69.76.1 > DNS > 64.59.160.13 64.59.160.15 > > > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > Never miss a thing.
