This sounds as if you are behind a firewall, which usually are blocking
FTP access and port 81. That's true?

Any change to this configuration would mean to open the network more
to the public (and is therefore creating a security hole). Depends on
the overall situation of your network which way to go - open up a little
or pay the telefone bills.
