Routers are located at gateways, the places where two or more networks connect, and are the critical device that keeps data flowing between networks and keeps the networks connected to the Internet.

First off, I am going to assume you are using GuildFTPd and that error is coming whenever you are trying to connect with Smart FTP.

This is what I have:
