I have the Buffalo LinkStation 500gb, my issue is I was running a Linksys router and I was able to access the drive at work through an ftp program, I have now switched to a AirLink router and now I can't access the Buffalo drive through the FTP program, I have opened the port 21 on the router and made sure that I enabled the web in the Buffalo program, I have tried the IP address of the LinkStation and also went to the site (what is my IP address) and neither on works... any help would be appreciated...

Make sure FTP works locally, that is, when you're connected to your home network, try FTPing to the local IP address of the Linkstation. If this works, then the Linkstation is working correctly and the problem lies with the router.
Remotely, make sure you're trying to access FTP by the public ( WAN side ) IP address of your router.
Colin137, sorry for the wrong forum.. I contacted Buffalo and I talked to tech and said that the issues was with the router, I went to my router properties and I thought that I opened the right ports (21), but it did not save and he also said that you need 20 and 21 open.. So he told me to go to www.canyouseeme.org to see if the ports are working and when I had the router settings right it showed that it was working...
Thanks Todd
