    If you can use the private IP spcae address of 10.0.0.1 and it works,
    FTP is working. If you're trying to access FTP from inside your
    network using the external IP, your router probably s not allowing you
    out to get back in (common). There's no real reason to worry about
    that. If you're trying from outside your network, then likely your
    router isn't correctly forwarding your external IP.
