i change my port in NAS to 23 so in my router i port forward 23 in start port and end port.
i use filezilla to connect it show me ENCONREFUSED seems like it cant detech my server .
ummm, port 23 is reserved for telnet and 21/22 are reserved for FTP. Why did you change the port?
im change to 449 still the same
 
i didnt use default port becuase my router has ftp function
Whenever you change a port always use 1024 and above as anything below that is reserved, give that a try.
If you still cannot what should i do
Well, if it's not a configuration error then just make sure you are ftp'd into the router using the port assigned to the NAS and it should work fine. What are you using to FTP?
"What are you using to FTP?"
what do you mean
what client are you testing this with: Internet explorer, FireFTP, Linux command line or something else? Also what type of FTP server are you running?
NAS 323 has built it FTP server. you dont know?

testing this with: IE

http://www.dlink.com/products/support.asp?pid=509&sec=0#applications has some firmware updates for the NAS with a few updates to FTP.

Let's use this example to try to make sure we're on the same page,

Say the IP address of NAS is 172.25.25.130 and FTP port is 2121
A PC on the same network is 172.25.25.120
and your router's external IP is 67.38.142.12

Now, when you try to connect from the NAS from a PC on the same network you use the URL ftp://172.25.25.130:2121

From somewhere else on the internet you connect via ftp://67.38.142.12:2121

And the router is configured to forward port 2121 to 172.25.25.130 port 2121. Right?
yes that is what i do

OK, if your are connecting to the NAS from a local PC at 172.25.25.130:2121 does your username/pass work? If it doesn't then it seems to be a problem with configuration of the NAS, if it does then it seems to be a problem with the configuration of the router.
