Connection Failure...
 

With Flashfxp I have connection failure trying to connect to my server to work on my domains. I only get a connection when I do a reconnect. After 4 or 5 tries, Flashfxp manages to connect. Very nerving. With any free ftp software I get a connection immediately.

Here are my details below... can you help?

thanks,
Riggie

You could try removing the windows firewall rules for FlashFXP and then re-add them, sometimes they just don't work properly and the only way to solve it is by removing the rule and re-adding them.

I tested connecting to your server a few times and on each attempt FlashFXP connected without problems, If the suggestion above doesn't resolve the issue then it may be a conflict with some other software on your computer.

OK, thanks for your help...
