While connecting to my web server using filezilla, i am getting this error:

Status: Resolving address of ftp.mysite.org.in
Status: Connecting to 199.199.199.18:21...

I use a cradlepoint CTR35 wifi router to connect to the wired internet connection. When i connect to the same server without this router, the connection works flawlessly.

So i guess there is some problem with my router firewall settings, but i dont know what! Can somebody help me out please?

Note: The server requires EXPLICIT FTP OVER TLS and does not work with plain FTP sessions. And i can connect to other servers using plain FTP with the router in between.
