Heya Balogt! What you listed for an IP address is your Local Area Network address. You'll need to provide your internet IP for people to access your FTP. Probably the quickest way to get that address is through something like http://whatsmyip.org/. You'll see your Internet IP in bold at the top of the page there.

Thanks a lot for access to the resources! :thumb_up:

We are bordering Off-Topic here, but since it is essentially about getting access to scripts ... :)

NAT. Network Address Translation. Your machine has address that can be used only in private LAN. Your machine connects to some other network device that connects to Internet Service Provider that connects to WAN, aka inet. And responses return the same route. Now one box in the line has that public IP address, and address within your LAN. Your machine probably calls it a gateway or router. And that router translates (NAT) the private source address of your server into its public address.

But now suppose you call from outside. The call goes to the router. It thinks that it is the destination, does no NAT, and then refuses the connection since it is no FTP server. If you do have control of that router, then there is "port forwarding" (aka "demilitarized zone") that may be possible. To tell the router to pass FTP from outside forward to you. Standard "you will open your firewall for attacks to FTP" warnings do apply.

Option B: The ISP firewall drops all incoming connections for all clients. Nothing that you can do. That is why there exists public filesharing services.
