(RV220W) Help! How can I access with my FileZilla Server?

Hi everyone - please help a noob of network configuration!  :-)

I want to share files with people, so I downloaded server software package of FileZilla (free) and now need to get my RV220W router to allow the traffic to this server... and because of my limited understanding of how it all works together, I am currently blocked.

So if someone could guide me a bit, it would be really great!  I read a few responses from people on port forwarding, but cannot operate in my situation... and probably because I did not understand how the communication happens... like which ports go where and what IP address should be linked to another, etc..

Here's what I know though:

FileZilla server - IP 127.0.0.1/port 21 + username + psw

RV220W router IP 192.168.1.1

My "external IP" = 37.75.XXX.XXX

More info needed?

Now, should what I do, in order to let the other access my server via a klient FTP FileZilla?  :-)

Oh and I'm using the latest version of firmware RV220W (menu seems reorganized between some versions).

Input greatly appreciated!  :-)

You must go to the firewall section (sometimes called security) the router and set up a rule to access the IP address of ANY side ALLOW WAN to the local IP address of the FTP server. Then go to transfer port (sometimes called Apps and games on some routers) and set up a single port forward port 21 to the local IP address of the FTP server. The 127.0.0.1 address you stated is the Local host, which is not the IP of your server network. Go to the command line and run ' ipconfig / has "without the quotes. Find your ethernet interface, and it will tell you the IP address assigned. You might have to configure this server with a static IP address either by making a reservation in DHCP from the router, or to go in your server network connection properties and there to under TCP/IPv4 properties. This way your server will not change IP addresses when the DHCP lease runs out.

I hope this helps...

You seasoned here guys kill... You should be ready to help people, regardless of their level of experience. There was a time where you guys didn't know squat either...
