You have set up two servers on your LAN side:

-
A web server (using the default port number of 80) at the IP address of 192.168.1.110
And want your friends on Internet to access the FTP server and web server on default ports. To access
your FTP or web server from the Internet, a remote user has to know the Internet IP address or Internet
name of your router, such as www.nexxtsolutions.com. In this example, we assume the Internet IP
address of your router is 183.37.227.201. Then follow instructions below:
Click
NAT -> Virtual Server

Select FTP that you wish to host on your network from the

this service. Here in this example, we enter 192.168.1.100.
Click the

button.
Your friends on Internet will then be able to access your FTP server simply by entering
"ftp://183.37.227.201" in their browsers.
