I forget to say for exemple:

If the dbox IP: 192.168.1.5
Filezilla IP the same as your Dbox
local area connection should be: 192.168.1.4

Local area Connection one number less at the end of IP address of your Dbox.

Hi Father ted how you doing we all missed your help M8.

As Ted said you need to reflash with IFA.
Also don't worry about connecting through a router, its fine. And feel free to change your ip. You don't have to have the one given to you. Just ensure the first 3 octets are the same as your network. The last octet can be anything you want.
