What client are you using to access ftp? and is it your own site or is it one of those anonymous file sharing sites?

using a router doesnt make any difference I access ftp 15-20 times a day on my wifi network at home and office so that is not an issue.

What error message do you get? Also can you try pinging the ip address of the site please and tell us if you get a reply.

Are you sure the site you are trying is still online?

Mind sharing the url ? You can PM me if its a privacy issue for you.

I dont see any reason why you cant access those sites ... Your isp could be blocking that ipaddress or may be your firewall... or in other case your ip could have been banned by the website.
Besides these there could be a lot of other reasons but lets first take the first step and make sure that site in question is indeed working and for that we would need the url.

Thanks

when did you access this site previously?
Disable windows firewall and use ftp option provided in IE7 to access ftp sites.

I think that this site may be down, even i am not able to access it, seems like the site is not responding

Can you also try using some FTP clients like cuteftp etc
