First, check that the fzsftp executable is unblocked in your Firewall (outgoing connection).

Then, check if you entered all information, including Hostname, correctly.

Finally, check that you didn't confuse FTPS for SFTP. Both have nothing in common except similar name and purpose. Try to connect using FTP (port 21).
