That's only required for PORT (non-passive mode connections) also linksys supports NAT so unless the ftp server is on a port other than port 21 this is unnessary. Also telling it to bind to an external IP may not be enough, depending on your network/router setup you may also need to configure a range of forwarding ports.
If passive mode is failing the problem is on the server side. Passive mode connections connect to the ftp server. Whereas with PORT (active mode) the ftp server connects to you.
