To check the port forwarding for the FTP server:
Make sure your FTP server is up and running. You will need a computer outside of your local network, but it must have Internet access (hereinafter referred to as an "Internet PC"). This PC should not be connected to the ASUS router in any way.

Make sure that your HTTP server is configured and running. You will need a computer outside of your local network, but it must have Internet access (hereinafter referred to as an "Internet PC"). This PC should not be connected to the ASUS router in any way. On an Internet PC, launch a web browser and enter the IP address of the WAN router in the address bar. If the port forwarding was successful, you should have access to the web page provided by the HTTP server.
