what FTP client do you use?
i'm trying to upload files to FTP using Transmit but it keep disconnecting
thought it's my connection but when uploading small file to the net or to you send it, it works fine.
downloading is fine too...
any idea?
Fetch FTP is my client of choice. A few dollars for a great app.
edit: also try the OS way:
Press Apple+K and stck the ftp address i n the server address field, if prompted with a log-in window fill in username and password and the FTP will mount on your desktop like a drive, providing it's not passive and secure and bla bla bla....
Clients are always the better choice though...
I use cyberduck. It's a little messy but you don't have to buy it...
+1 for fetch, though i've heard firefox has an ftp add-on? anyone tried it?
I'm gonna try Cyberduck... I now use Classic FTP but it really sucks... Somehow it doesn't show any status till the upload is like 60% done, leaving you wonder what the hell is going on...
cyberduck gets my vote.
my internet supplier is so suck. i was complaining about the upload speed they said it's must be the client i use
well it sound stupid but i tried cyberduck and it was the same .
anyway, i took my laptop to a friend house upload speed is resanable with both clients
go explain that to a clueless girl on the help desk of the internet supplier....
Yummy FTP and Transmit are also super good, but pay items. Cyberduck works fine!
I have filezilla and FireFTP (firefox addon)
fetch is great, i used lots of the others, you can get serial at serialz . to
also with fetch the loading animation for the cursor is a lion running, which is good fun while youwait

yep - I use fireFTP in firefox on windows. I really like it.
I assume the mac version will be the same.

What is your download speed???
cyberduck!!!!
yep, coin coin the duck
@Erroraudio
did the test:
download speed: 2655 kb/s
upload speed: 270 kb/s
upload is too slow
i suppose to have 2.5Mb connection wtf

Nope that seems about right... The trig is that if you look at the fine print in the letters from your isp, its says that your download is 2.5Mbit but your upload is 256 or 512. This is normal.
Wiki:
The distinguishing characteristic of ADSL over other forms of DSL is that the volume of data flow is greater in one direction than the other, i.e. it is asymmetric. Providers usually market ADSL as a service for consumers to connect to the Internet in a relatively passive mode: able to use the higher speed direction for the "download" from the Internet but not needing to run servers that would require high speed in the other direction.
i feel like being deceived but i guess i never read the small letters
since the last post i upgrade my connection speed...
and today FTP problems again. i can't upload files to the FTP
FTP's preferences on cyberduck seems to right
maybe i have to change some preferences on m machine?
yousendit works fine
but for in this case i must use FTP
thanks Erroraudio it's a legit suggestion
I've tried Fetch, Cyberduck, but I still like Transmit the most so I paid for it. It works like a charm.
And if you must use file-hosting sites the most hassle free ones are Mediafire.com and recently I tried Boxstr.com and that's nifty too.
Transfer well, brother.
i've tried fetch, transmit and cyberduck
connection seems to be fine till it gets to upload.
i did the test ErrorAudio posted, speed is ok
but when i'm trying to upload it doesn't work
maybe it something with the router? some kind of intelligent firewall how programmed to drive me insane?
There's also Flow. pretty nice app. www.flowapp.com

Maybe, since downloading torrents lately I've had to deal with blocked ports and shit and that is some kind of router setting. Have to do some port mapping BS and other IT type shit to get it to work properly.
