John, I tried your suggestion and you were correct, it seems that
plusnet do not allow the connection out then in again. FTP works from
my phone.
Now the next issue. I am trying to add my ftp share as a repository in
YaST > Software Repositoried > Add > Specify URL
i have tried ftp://192.168.0.10/ (which works in Dolphin). It either
freezes on 'Checking repository type' (causing me to have to kill
yast2) or it says 'Unable to create repository from URL Change the URL
or try again?'
The same files work over smb in another repository

I have set up an anonymous FTP share on my FreeNAS box according to the following instructions:

This works fine when I access is over LAN in Dolphin and Firefox using ftp://192.168.0.10/
I have forwarded port 21 to 192.168.0.10 on my router, however when I try to access ftp://myinternetip/ it does not connect. I am faced with a loading icon for up to 10 mins in firefox before it times out and Dolphin just says it could not connect to the server after about 30 seconds.
I am able to access my owncloud successfully though. Any ideas?
Have you tried from somewhere else? Take your phone off wifi, use your cell data and try it.
Some ISPs don't allows out then in again connections to the same cable modem or router. My comcast connection won't allow this. Same symptoms.
Yet it works from anywhere else.
