3 different errors when trying to connect

[the_green_gh0st]

After entering all my login information (acquired from the XML file I got from the hosting site), which showed it using the host as seen below, as well as an anonymous connection. I tried connecting and got the following:

I have opened both port 21 and port 22 on my router, I set a rule in Norton 360 to allow Filezilla traffic through and it didn't work. I tried SFTP and FTP (in the above, the first try was using FTP, the ones after that were SFTP). It didn't work. I tried using the network configuration wizard and got this:

Code: Select all

Response: 200 PORT command successful

Response: 150 opening data connection
Response: 503 Failure of data connection.

Connection closed

For that, I chose to obtain my IP address externally, and used the port range 6000-7000. It still didn't work. I have also opened ports 6000-7000 on my router. The only thing I can actually think of that might be doing this is a firewall, but I set the rule in Norton 360 to allow Filezilla through. So what could the problem be?

NOTE: I tried entering the name and password of one of my FTP accounts, instead of using an anonymous connection, and I still got errors.

I also tried this on two computers, this one has Norton 360 and the other one has Norton Endpoint. Both are on the same network and using the same router. I made a rule on the other computer in Norton Endpoint to let Filezilla through. I am using InMotion as my host. I am also new to this and have never dont FTP or made my own website before.

EDIT:

I tried changing some of the settings around. I changed from SFTP to regular FTP, changed the login type to "account", and put in my user name, password, and username again. I got the following:

It appears to be connecting, but disconnects after a few seconds for some reason.

I cannot reach the server from here either, making this a server problem. Please contact the server administrator for assistance.

Uh, so the hosting company?

Yes, unless they have outsourced their administration.
