Posted October 28, 2018 check your computers firewall to allow ftp:21 traffic, Make sure that the directory is shared under the user and valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted October 28, 2018 The problem you are seeing is due to the PASV port range not being open. You can specify this in the FileZilla Server config, i would suggest using 45000 to 45100 then also forwarding those ports on your router to the FTP server. Without FTP inspection (which residential routers won't do) it will have no way of opening the PASV FTP port ranges. When you connect on Port 21, the FileZilla server will return with a list of PASV port ranges if you haven't specified these in the config it will be dynamic. This doesn't work behind a NAT with firewall(s) that don't inspect FTP traffic. So instead you will need to set the PASV port range manually then forward those ports also, this should sort it. Also make sure the Windows Firewall allows for the PASV port range also. Please quote or tag me if you need a reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 28, 2018 For the love of all that's holy, if you're not running an internal-only site, at least use SFTP if you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
