Encountering an issue with FileZilla where the passive mode connections seem to be failing intermittently.

I am encountering an issue with FileZilla where the passive mode connections seem to be failing intermittently. I have checked my firewall settings, and they seem to be configured correctly. Are there any specific server-side configurations or client-side settings within FileZilla that could be causing this problem, and what steps can I take to troubleshoot and resolve it?

Make sure the number of ports in the configured passive mode range is at least as large as the number of transfers that can possibly be made in 4 minutes.

If you are using Windows firewall, it is known to be faulty, it sometimes just breaks passive mode transfers. Try disabling Windows firewall completely.
