Accessing local FTP server through external IP bandwidth usage
Go to solution
Solved by brwainer,
Accessing a local server from a local client via the external IP is called "Hairpin NAT". The router should handle it locally, I can't really see any setup where it would send out to the default gateway then come back. Actually if it made it to the ISP, the packet would probably just be dropped since the source IP would be a private IP address which is non-routable on the internet.
