My new computer sits behind a router, and I can't upload via FTP to my account at orion.lunarpages.com nor send email attachments via my domain accounts, only download. Although I have no problems with uploading to other remote servers with the router, and without the router it worked too. What may be the reason for this? Is Lunarpages's server using some obscure port that is blocked by my router?

Ah, forgot to say I'm using CuteFTP with the configurations you recommend at http://setup.lunarpages.com/manual/cpanel-manual.html#configftp.

Try to enable or disable passive ftp. That might help you.

Forgot to say I'd already tried that, too. It doesn't work, and I'm still scratching my head. Now I've tried with very small files, upload seems to work only with files under 1Kb! I've also tried with SmartFTP, no luck with that either   "[Frown]"

I still can't upload my files. Can you help me? Meanwhile, I've had to upload the files to another server (no problem there, btw).

If you have administrative access to your router you can set the IP address of your computer as a DMZ and the router/firewall will stop blocking whatever ports are being blocked.  When you're done uploading, you turn the DMZ off or you may even be able to set a timer on your router so it turns itself off after a period of time.

Cheers,

Ok, I don't know what you've done over there, I haven't changed anything and at the moment it's working. Btw, My 3com 812 router doesn't support DMZ.  "[Smile]"
