This is the proof. You're sending a network internal address to the remote
server so it can't find on that.

NAT is something that translates your IP address in the packages while going
from your machine to remote hosts.
This is not the case however. You probably have two network interfaces and
wget seems to pick the "wrong" one by default here,
I can't find how to change that address.

PORT tells the server to contact you for the data transfer. When you do PASV
you contact the server instead.
