I'm trying to setup a FTP server though my current router but I've been having problems, I've tired forwarding port 21 to another open ports but its just not cooperating with me. Any suggestions would be appriciated, hardware/software listings are below. The problem is getting around the Private network assigned IP given by the router and setting it to accepting the DHCP assigned one from my ISP.
I'm using Telus ADSL and a D-Link ADSL Ethernet Modem. The IP is dynamic.
(please break any suggestion into simple steps for easier application )
And another question does anyone own the BEFW11S4 or a similar model and use the router’s built in Zonealarm and PC-Cillin Anti-Virus features? After all it was built specifically to be compatible with these programs so I wonder if its worth switching back over to them from Norton's.

SOFTWARE:
Serv-U- Server IP = Automatic (DHCP is not available, due to the router Serv-U does not even see it, even if I type it in manually)
- Passive File Transfer = Yes, automatic assigned IP
- although I am using a personal firewall (Norton Internet Security) bypassing my router and connecting directly to my WAN allows the FTP server to work just fine so no blockage there
HARDWARE:- Linksys Wireless Access Point Router, Model. BEFW11S4 (802.11b)
- Integrated 3com Deluxe Ethernet Adapter (Motherboard A7N8X Deluxe)
- you can take a look at my admin settings if you have questions as to what options I have, they are in the user manual
