Re^2: Net::FTP takes a very long time in Passive mode

In that post, twice the author said listening on a random port, it is correct to a level...

Both the user and the server-DTPs have a default data port. The user-process default data port is the same as the control connection port (i.e., U). The server-process default data port is the port adjacent to the control connection port (i.e., L-1).
Default Data Connection Ports: All FTP implementations must support use of the default data connection ports, and only the User-PI may initiate the use of non-default ports.
Negotiating Non-Default Data Ports: The User-PI may specify a non-default user side data port with the PORT command. The User-PI may request the server side to identify a non-default server side data port with the PASV command.

It would make more sense to post your correction as a reply to the post that it is correcting? Examine what is said, not who speaks.
