Why port 420?

The simple solution would be to check passive mode in FlashFXP. Since it's enabled by default I have to wonder why you disabled it?

OR

You need to open a range of ports, depending on your ftp activity the more the better. I recommend starting with 10 and opening more later if needed. When deciding on the port number it must be a port above 1024, most ftp servers will reject attempts from lower port numbers. I use 7000-7010 and that works well for me.

Now that you have the port forwarding configured on the firewall you need to configure FlashFXP. Options -> Preferences > Firewall Tab. Check the option "Limit local port range to" and enter the same range of ports that you entered in your router 7000-7010.

If you still encounter problems you may need to use the "Bind sockets to this address" option, in the address field you need to enter the IP address assigned to you by your isp.
