Hi Carl3110,

There was a missing dns record on your domain for ftp.

I have added this and you should be able to access ftp within the next 4 hours.

In the meantime you can use the following IP address as the ftp address.

209.235.144.9.

Kind Regards,

Dreamweaver FTP configuration

FTP host : haywardstravel.com -> DO not enter ftp.haywardstravel.com

Host directory: /public_html/ -> /public_html/ is where everything you want to see on the web goes

don't forget the forward slashes / they are required.

Password: random string of letter & numbers the longer the better (Some web hosts are case sensitive)

TICK the box marked 'Use passive FTP'

and you should be good to go....

BT routers don't have a Firewall so its unlikely you need to fiddle with these settings and the same applies for secure ftp communication. Optional settings for synchronisation, auto upload and check-in/out are just that and can all be left un-ticked.

Pplease can you submit a dns enquiry form from here.

I am also having problems using FTP from progams such as Dreamweaver and FileZillia to transfer to a website I run on a Hosting company. I have tried on a PC and a laptop and get the same results. This FTP process worked well before changing my ISP to BT. Sometimes it connects and other times it times out.

I have talked with the hosting company and they suggest that since it worked before on another ISP , then the BT system must somehow be blocking or interfering with the FTP process.

Can anyone from BT provide me either here or privately with inof on this ?
