[DSL] SR505N NAT

This is a real basic question. For some reason I am unable to do a SIMPLE NAT on this SR505N that I just got today.

I go into Advanced Settings, NAT, Virtual Servers, Add, Select the service example :
FTP TCP 21
Select the server IP address: ie. 192.168.0.5

I get the following error : Internal server IP address "192.168.0.5" is invalid.
It sure is valid!

Anyone have this problem ? I haven't changed any defaults on the modem.

I now see why it doen't work! This is terrible.
I changed the IP address of the SR505N to another subnet 192.168.0.x!
The NAT does work with default 192.168.1.x subnet!

Horrible. Who built this firmware ?

Ok one last thing!
It does work if you leave the modem on the .1 address however if you change the IP address of the modem it will not work...

Not a good first impression.

Yes I did, made it narrower.
It's all working now but the router needs to be on .1
Just strange to see something so simple not work...
