    Running an FTP/FTPS on Merlin firmware Recommendations

    You mean filezilla's server? My server would depend on theirs. Same as cloud rot.

    Running an FTP/FTPS on Merlin firmware Recommendations

    Hi. I use filezilla behind a router too, but I don't have a fixed IP and I need to use a DDNS. I have a problem with passive FTP. The server needs to know my WAN IP for the PASV reply. There are two options in filezilla: - Ask the DNS (router) for the IP of DDNS name. This doesn't work because...
