Help with broadband

Post by Chris Read »

When I had dial-up internet, I used to use ftp with IE just fine. Now, I have broadband and tried to go to my ftp, I get this message. Help!

What FTP program are you using, and what are the settings? At a guess, I'd say that your ftp program is still trying to use the dail-up connection which is no longer functioning.

Don't use IE - use a third party ftp program.

I use and recommend Filezilla - very rarely fails to work. If that doesn't work for you or you don't want to install a program, you can try using CG's built-in WebFTP client. That should work with any connection as it's browser based.
