considering move from bt to plusnet fttc

What was strange about issue, was I could access my own FTP locally, however if I accessed via another network (I tested using a laptop and my O2 phone) the FTP would stop working. I forget now, but the issue was either only in passive mode or active mode FTP.
It was quite some time ago, I need to look into it again. I forget what one it was, but the FTP would work in either passive or active mode but not the other. What was odd is I was taking an FTP from a 3rd party for almost a year, then one day it stopped. Then when I tested there was this issue getting into the FTP server if I went via Plusnet.
I have to check everything again to refresh myself as it what happened, at the time there was a 2 page thread on Plusnet and no one could resolve anything. I was even checking windows server updates to see if one had someone knocked something out, I remember at the time taking all the firewalls off Windows server and my own Draytek, but it made no difference. In desperation I even moved FTP from the standard port on my Windows Server, and again I had the same issue with it working only in either passive mode or active mode.
