FTP Speed Tips and Troubleshooting

We have a new article up on FTPplanet that provides tips on increasing your FTP speed. We know a lot of you wonder why your FTP transfers aren't as fast as you'd expect, so put together this article to provide some information on increasing FTP speed. It may come as a surprise but the issue may have nothing to do with your FTP client...

Excerpt: "If you've every found yourself asking why your FTP client isn't transferring files as fast as you'd expect, a key thing to remember is that there are a lot of external factors that determine FTP speed. Your FTP client is just a small piece of the puzzle.

These five questions will help you determine what may be causing slow transfers for you and may help you increase your speed."

We are receiving a 151 error and don't know
what it means?

The 151 error is usually a response about a directory listing. It shouldn't be an error message...it's should just be a reply from the server. What happens when you see this message?

For some reason, I can not log in to my WS_FTP Pro
file transfer program. Keep getting message:
log in incorrect, etc. Can not figure out
what I am doing wrong. My files are there,
but I can not access them. Can anyone help me?
