FTP is timing out on even small batches
repeatedly

The FTP was down briefly over the weekend, but it should be working fine now. Please let me know if you are still having troubles.

I'm having the same problem: 'CONNECTION ATTEMPT TIMED OUT"

I will have our tech department look into whether we have had any downtime.

Can you post a screenshot of your FTP log so we can look into it further. We're not seeing any problems on our end.

This may be a problem with your firewall. Can you look into that and let me know what happens? Thanks.

It works one time then doesn't the next. My firewall hasn't changed. Worked flawlessly until about a week ago, then intermittent problems.

That was my post above. Never let me post without logging in before (even though I was logged into the site - but that's another problem)

Anyway came back to edit my post and mention that ftp works fine on all other sites - again negating the firewall argument.

Whatever you fixed, it blocked my access to ftp. It hasn't been accpeting my ID and password for the past few days. I get "530 Login incorrect."

I didn't change anything at this end. It just started doing it out of the blue.

I can log in but the FTP keeps timing out when uploading 2 HD footage clips. I've contacted SS through the contact-sheet.
I really hope SS can sort it out. Since my FTP tried 4 times to upload a clip (I was away). Now I have the clip (partially I presumme, but no way to check) 4 times in my Waiting to be submitted-section!

I'm hoping for a quick solution.

It worked at 1:30, it doesn't work at 5:10. Same computer, network, and firewall. Always 5 files around 5-8 mb each.

I understand your techs are always going to claim the problem is with the user, but this has been going on for a week or more. It works sometimes and doesn't work others.
