I created an account, and tried to log into it with the FTP Function of Total Commander. It worked once, then ever since then, it’s errored out with “Connect Call Failed!” I’m trying to connect to ftpupload.net, which is right. And it has nothing to do with login credentials, because when I strip them out, I get the same error, without it ever getting as far as asking for username and password.
It doesn’t work in FileZilla either. I found a list of ports that Spectrum blocks, and Port 21 isn’t one of them. And I’m able to connect to other FTP sites, just not this one.
The servers here are set up to block pings and network information requests. If isitup.org uses the technology I described above, it will always appear down. For me, ftpupload.net is working fine.
If the blacklist is there in your system, you need to remove the domain from the list. If the service uses online blacklist mechanism, you need to ask the software support to help you out!
In Total Commander, the error is “Connect Call Failed”, before it gets to any login screen.
In FileZilla, it’s…
|Status:|Resolving address of ftpupload.net|
|Status:|Connecting to 185.27.134.11:21…|
|Error:|Connection timed out after 20 seconds of inactivity|
|Error:|Could not connect to server|
Could you please try to get more detailed logs from FileZilla? It will give us more insight as to what’s actually happening with your connection.
Another thing to consider is that virus scanners or firewalls running on your own computer may block access to our FTP server, and using a VPN does not bypass that.
Here are the logs. But it’s happened on multiple computers, with no firewall and no antivirus running.
