Hi all, Thanks for all the comments and tips. I got ftp explorer but am hoving some odd results. The connection seems to be established with plusnet but when I try to upload files, I get a permission denied message. Just wondering if this is a fire wall issue as I have the vigor 2600 which has a built-in firewall. Thanks for further help.
