FTP's on linux use passive ftp connection.
ANd are you using ssh..?

Add following to /etc/vsftpd.conf
Code: Select all
connect_from_port_20=YES
pasv_enable=YES
pasv_addr_resolve=YES
pasv_address=myaddress.no-ip.org
pasv_min_port=4242
pasv_max_port=4252


So which ports do i forward on my modem? 20 ?

Check my complete guide viewtopic.php?f=127&t=9294

You need to forward 20, 21 on both tcp and udp
Also group forward fort 4242 to 4252

on your router.
