You're having a problem with passive mode. This usually indicates that your firewall hasn't been configured properly.

Also, I can see that you are connecting to your external (WAN) IP address. Is this intentional? Are you connecting from outside your LAN?

What happens if you connect locally? Your client appears to be on 192.168.2.105?

Enabling ports did make it work, is there a way to specify a range for ftp ports that will be used so I can enable them only
