Connecting through SFR hotspot

#1 Post by gilbert.varey » 2021-07-12 12:56

Hello everybody
When on holidays, I used to connect Internet through an SFR hotspot or an ORANGE hotspot.
I note that I am unable to connect Filezilla to my personnal Website hosted on an Orange server (perso-ftp.orange.fr) when accessing internet through the SFR hotspot.
BUT, if I connect to Internet through the ORANGE hotspot, no problem to connect to my personnal website hosted on the Orange server.
How do you explain this ?
Cheers

In case it is a mobile provider, those usually have very bad FTP support or none at all. That's because they tend to block every protocol that can potentially cause large traffic (which FTP, as a file transfer protocol, is a prime example of).
