I have been able to connect to ftp's in the past but lately, I haven't been able to access that last few that I have tried. I am behind a linksys and using smart ftp. I tried putting the IP of a the computer trying to access the FTP's in the DMZ thing but that didn't change anything. It's annoying that I haven't been able to access any FTP's lately since I have been able to in the past. There is one ftp I have been able to access lately. But a few that I haven't.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Settings to try and such.

EDIT: BTW, the message I am getting from the ftp I am trying to connect to right now is "connection timeout. no response from server." Does that tell which end the problem is at? I hope this helps.

EDIT again: I've tried accessing another FTP with the same results as I listed above. I am thinking there is something screwy at my end not letting me into most FTPs. It makes me wonder what is different about the FTP that I get into with no problem but I think that one might just be special. In addition to trying the DMZ thing, I have also tried both active and passive modes in smart FTP. It hasn't made any difference either. I am not sure what I need to try next. Maybe some port forwarding? I know I had to do that to get Emule to work right. If anyone has any ideas that would be great. Five votes go to people that offer advice that fixes my problem.
