FTP troubles

Postby Chaos Angel » Sun Oct 27, 2002 10:19 pm

I had no idea where to put this thread, but this seemed good enough.

That being said...

I am having trouble FTPing files into my website.

I can handle small files, such as JPEGs, but large files such as videos cause it to freeze up and time out.

Any ideas how I can fix this problem? Thanks.

I'm guessing bandwith issues. What kind of connection are you on and do you know your bandwith?

I'm using WS_FTP. And as for the bandwidth, I have no clue. I'm going through my university, if that means anything.

Does the program freeze up or does the transfer just stall?

I would try another program out, if that doesn't work, give it 24hrs. Could be a problem with the FTP server.

24 hours won't help, it's been doing this for the past few weeks. Waiting hasn't worked.

I'll try something else. Thanks.
