What OS are you on, are you using NAT?

[chercm]

i am using smc router
not nat

[Linkster]

There is one configuration that will NEVER work. If both the server and the client are behind a firewall or nat, browsing is impossible without a proxy. One of you has to be outside. If you are outside, non-passive mode will work..if the server is outside, but you are behind a firewall or nat, you must use passive mode.

have you tried other ftp sites..like public ones?

[chercm]

the other site can work except this

[MxxCon]

try pasv mode.
also try "bind this ip to local ports" option and give it your inet ip

[chercm]

what is inet address?

[Fusion]

MxxCon meant the internet address your connection is allocated by your internet service provider. It can be a static or dynamic address. If you bind to that address, you should avoid having your local, and usually very bogus address used in its place.
