Just a helpful bump of this extremely useful post.
Unbeknownst to me, several months ago Gatinha (I know, I'm amazed she did this too) upgraded the OS on our Airport Extreme router from 7.6.1 to 7.6.4.
If you read the OP you'll realize why I haven't been able to successfully ftp for month now, despite all my trouble shooting.
So today a lightbulb went on! Hey.... last time I had similar issues, I had to regress the Airport Extreme OS... maybe the old 7.6.1 is too old, and there's a new update/fix... so I check it's OS version.
What the hell... it's 7.6.4 somehow. Whch is the newest... and the one known to kill ftp's.
"Oh, I updated it months ago... it was out of date."
Ah. Problem solved. Can't blame her, I'm impressed she updated.
Regressed to 7.6.1 and boom, my ftp programs work again. See OP.
Man. Do old problems sure know how to rear up and harass you.
