hmm..
Here is what my FTP Server setup looks like:

Max. User: 10
Idle Time: 2
Port: 65505
Passive Mode: Ranges 65501-65504 (I've changed it from default just for testing, I've forwarded these ports on my router to the dns-323)
Report external IP in Passive Mode checked
External IP: 50.99.137.191
Client Language: Unicode
Flow Control: Unlimited
SSL/TLS: Unchecked

That's pretty much what I have - try setting the "non standard" port to something lower - 1021 - or similar and see what happens.

Leave the passive range at the default and set the ftp port to something below 1024

So I've opened up my ports for the passive ftp and I am now getting a connection timeout and fail to retrieve directory listing

here is the log:

I had the same problem but I was able to resolve it... but my FTP cannot use the secure connection and DLink doesn't know how to fix this problem. again, crappy support from dlink
