Go into Home > Toolbox > Game & Application Sharing
Then Configure, select game or application from the drop down - FTP Server, HTTP Server & SMTP Server are all there and just point them to device you wish to host the service...
If you want to use non-standard ports just define a new game or application.
Simples...

The router come configured as IP 192.168.1.254 and I needed to make it 192.168.1.1. You would think that was easy but the only way I could do it was to save the config file, edit it, and upload the changes back to the router.
I wish you well - lett me know.

You can set the router's IP by going Home Network -> Interfaces -> Local Network -> Configure (Hidden in the top right of the page).
To set the port forwarding to your servers go to Home Network -> Devices -> <Click on the Device> -> Configure. Then just choose the services that should be forwarded to that machine in the drop down, click Add then Apply when you are done.
I just checked this process on my machine for SMTP and HTTP and it worked correctly and took less than 30 secs to do.

However port forwarding worked only for mail serving and webserving which, as you found, is straightforward. Have you actually managed to forward for FTP? I would be interested to hear how you did it?
Thank you for suggesting it s my fault however if you search on Google you will find that many have experienced just the same problems. What I really need is suggestions for an alternative router.
Another problem with the Thomson is that one of the ports has to be used for the broadband leaving you with only 3 ports to use.

nat maplist intf=Internet
This will give you a list of all the static nat mappings in the device. You need to find the one that is mapping your outside interface port 21 to a non-existent or incorrect inside interface port 21 (e.g mine was 3 NAPT Internet [static ip snipped]:21 192.168.1.253:21)
Then simply issue
nat mapdelete intf=Internet index=<index of the ftp mapping from the first command>
saveall
And PRESTO! Port forwarded ftp.

However this really isn't what a home user should have to do to port forward!!!! Moreover it isn't documented any where in the accompanying user manual.
