I would like to use port 9000 on the modem but I am also behind a NAT in the office and I am only allowed for ftp and http. I use http for my modem's remote mgmt and the ftp port is the only one left. In th emean time, what you suggest seems logical (i.e. modem's tracking of ftp flow.) I will check it also.
