how do i get my ftp server working with my router? The ftp server works fine on other computers in my home network, but not in the outside world.

Gotta find the routers port forwarding and forward port 20-21 to the ftp. (or a dif port if you want to change the ftp's confgiguration)

Have someone outside the network try and access it.

To test it, what address would I enter? The router IP address?

I tried it by using a dial-up connection and it did not work. I entered the routers wan ip address in and it did not work. this does work however when i am on another computer in my home network by typing the computers ip or the router wan ip.

It should be the ip address for the router.
Or easier yet, whatever
This
site tells you it is (when viewing it from a pc behind the router)

OK, now I know I am doing everything right. But I still can not get outside users to see my server. I heard that some ISPs block popular ports like 21(ftp) or 80(http) so if that is my problem, then how do I get around it?
