Active-mode ftp will not work through a NAT system without some sort of special handling. In a 2.2.x system, this means ip_masq_ftp.o, and in a 2.4.x system, it means ip_conntrack_ftp.o . If you don't have the appropriate handler, you will need to use passive ftp.
Also, if you want debian iso images, you should look at http://cdimage.debian.org and follow the recommended procedure to build an image with rsync. It is much friendlier on the Internet, and will probably be faster as well.
