I can't log into my ProFTPD server , Help please.

So i've been using the proftpd feature for about two years now to log into my attached external Hard drive and upload files with no problems. A few days ago, i tried logging in but got a "530 Login incorrect." message. I also noticed that  the user/password combination box has dissappeared completely from my dd-wrt proftpd page. I'm guessing the fact i can't log in is directly related to that. Anyone have a clue how to fix this issue? 

 

Here's what i've tried so far. I've tried upgrading and downgrading firmwares.  I tried installing the newest revision but there seems to be a bug in that that won't even mount my drive correctly. When flashing a different firmware, i've always set my settings to default to the factory standards with no luck. I've tried enabling anonymous log in but cannot log in that way either. 

 

Here's a screenshot of what my set up looks like. i've blacked out my WAN IP and username/password in the file sharing section.  I'm have an ASUS RT-N16 and am currently using DD-WRT v24-sp2 (05/24/13) stdkong (SVN revision 21661M). Any help would be appreciated.

ok, i tried ticking the 'ftp'

ok, i tried ticking the 'ftp' box under the File Sharing section and then used the same username/password i have listed above that i blacked out. That seems to work, however the old username/password i used specifically with ProFTPD didn't work. Very weird that the username/password box just dissppeared in the ProFTPD section but glad i can ftp again.
