From inside ftp is working perfectly via Windows Explorer and from Dos
From outside, if I use Windows Explorer i get no response, if I use Dos I get 'Connection Timed out'
My Netgear Router has an inbuilt Firewall Rule that can be used to forward FTP traffic to a specified host. This rule claims to utilise TCP ports 20 and 21(See attached screen dump)
I quite successfully used the Netgear Firewall rules to route other kinds of traffic through the router.

does ftp not work at all, or get part way there?
from inside
from dos - if you ftp to the internal IP- then enter user / pass
from outside
from dos - if you ftp to the external IP- then enter user / pass
have you forwarded ports 20 and 21?
have you allowed the traffic in through the firewall as well as setting up the NAT translation?>
