Connection to ftp closed by remote host

You have both equipments with the same ip address. Connect the PC to the firewall, login and change the IP first.

To perform a factory reset using the reset button do the following:

Step 1: Make sure that the DFL-200/DFL-700 is on.

Step 2: Press and hold the button located on the back of the DFL-200/DFL-700 below the word Reset using a paper clip for 10 seconds.

Step 3: Release the button.

This is an excerpt from a MS Technet page for error 53:
Resolutions: 1) if it is domain environment, check your WINS; 2) if it is peer-to-peer workgroup, enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP; 3) make sure the machine is running; 4) make sure file and Printer Share enabled on remote computer; 5) make sure client for ms networks is enabled on local computer; 6) make sure you type the correct name. 7) Make sure no firewall running or any security setting.
Pay close attention to #s 4 and 5 - I suspect XP pro might not be open enough.

reset the router to default settings by pressing on the reset button for ten seconds. (usually located at the back of the unit)

Do you really need to be using command-line? Here are the things you need to do this as simple as possible:

Information Needed:
Host address: (example: ftp.somesite.com)
username: (if not anonymous)
password: (if not anonymous)

Software Needed:
FTP CLIENT: download here

After you have it installed, follow the documentation in the help menu to connect to the server and transfer your file(s).

Possible problems:
1. IDE Flash device is damaged
2. IDE controller is damaged
2. Firmware is corrupt

Try and download the firmware, and install. You should then get a better idea if the IDE device or controller is bad if it won't install or see the device.

You have to allow the following:
ICMP type 8 (Echo) from your DMZ to the Internet (a.k.a outbound)
ICMP type 0 (Echo reply) from the Internet to your DMZ (a.k.a inbound)

This will be done by adding the rules in the firewall section of your DFL-700.

Does this mean anything to you Remote Login Names and Passwords During a remote login, the device prompts you for a login name and password. You can display the login name when logged in to the device from a remote console by using a device status command. Logging in Remotely or Locally Logging in to a local console is the same as logging in to a remote console except that you must connect to the device by starting Telnet on your host system. To log in remotely, begin at step 1. To log in locally, begin at step 3. To log in from a remote console: 1. Connect to the device by starting Telnet on your host system. Your host system is the system to which remote terminals are connected. 2. Supply the device?s name or Internet Protocol (IP) address. To use device names, your network must have a name server. Issue either the device name or the IP address as shown in the following example: % telnet brandenburg or % telnet 128.185.132.43 At this point, it makes no difference whether you have logged in remotely or locally. 3. If you are prompted, enter your login name and password. login: Password: It is possible that there is a login and no password. The password controls access to the device. If a password has not been set, press the Enter key at the Password: prompt. Logins are not set automatically. For security, you can set up user names and passwords using the add user command in the CONFIG process. For additional information, see the add user configuration command, on 56. Remember to reload or restart to activate any changes. Note: If you do not enter a login name and valid password within 1 minute of the initial prompt, or if you enter an incorrect password three times in succession, the device drops the Telnet connection. 4. Press the Enter key to display the asterisk (*) prompt. You may have to press the Enter key more than once or press Ctrl-P to obtain the * prompt. Once at this level, you can begin to enter commands from the keyboard. Press the Backspace key to delete the last character typed in on the command line. Press the Delete key or Ctrl-U to delete the whole command line entry so that you can reenter a command. See ?Command Completion? on page 20 and ?Command History? on page 23 for more information. You can also use local Telnet commands on your Telnet client to close the Telnet connection.

NAT traversal refers to the common problem in TCP/IP networking of establishing connections between hosts in private TCP/IP networks which use NAT devices Client-based IPsec VPN connections often do not work when passing through a NAT device as the IKE and IPsec protocols were not designed to work through NAT. NAT Traversal is an add-on to the IKE and IPsec protocols that allows them to work when being NATed. NAT traversal is only used if both endpoints support it. D-Link products that currently support NAT traversal include the DFL-200, DFL-700 and DFL-1100. Note: The DFL-80 and DFL-300 do not support NAT traversal.
