Full Version: FTP going whacko

Everytime I use FTP, I get a certain "failed to establish data socket" or something like that.

It connects either VERY slowly or gives that message. Any help, or, is it me downloading too much on Shareaza? blink.gif

I can't tell from that what the problem is but I do know the 4 most common problems are:

1. Turning passive mode on or off helps in most cases.

2. Raising the timeout limit to double what you currently have set helps

3. Switching between auto/binary/ASCII can sometimes help

4. The server is down.

1 or 2 usually fixes most problems and if it's only just starting to have problems then it could be 4 tongue.gif

Seems to go fast. But i'm not sure about later on.
