Based on this I figured it was an issue with the iPhone apps, I think it was error 425 (cannot build data connections). Then I thought it was my Netgear WNR3500L, since I used DD-WRT on it, I figured maybe something was screwy - a draw back of bleeding edge geeky stuff, you question it. Anyway, it was a port configuration issue by me.
I needed to open port 22, not 21. I also had to connect using different settings SFTP.
As for iPhone client, I have tried a few; FTPOnTheGo, Files Connect, and Easy FTP. Of them all I like FTPOnTheGo - I should probably look into the options again - considering iPad clients too.
Since I originally stater this investigation and setup, I treated myself to a new router Apple Extreme Base Station. I might write a quick review on it actually...

Hi,
Good Post
Did you manage to work out how to use FTPS? Thanks
Never did work out the issue with FTPS, I stick with SFTP now. Really easy to manage SFTP on NAS4Free too.
Let me know what you are trying to do, or what you are up to, and we can try and look into it together.
