Disconnect, Reconnect, it goes on

[JLR]

I can't understand why everytime I finish downloading a file on the FTP it disconnects me and reconnects to start the next one.

Is that a setting in my FlashFXP or from the Server side? (Serv-U)

these days routers/firewalls have an connection idle limit, if the control connection remains idle for too long the connection is lost. as soon as the transfer completes FlashFXP attempts to send a command and a connection reset by peer is detected.

Your router/firewall may have an update that increases the idle timeout or this may be optional via the configuration.

Aternatively, FlashFXP provides an option "send noops during transfer" this option is not compatible with all ftp servers but it may help solve your problem.

Nope the FTP server doesn't have this on, due to ghost logins they don't need bandwidth taking up.

I see nothing in my router settings about this, I have a Linksys 4 Port BEFSR41, with a DLink 300G+ modem, windows XP Pro with SP1 Build 2600, FlashFXP 2.2 Beta 931.

It's ok sometimes but other times it loses connection after a transfer.
