Configuration of FileZilla

In our example we are considering that your domain name is example.ext and that you are connecting using the default FTP account of your domain: webmaster@mon_domaine.ext.

Step 1: Download of FileZilla

You can download FileZille for free from the website of FileZilla available for Windows, Mac and Linux.

Configuration of the FTP account

  • Click on “File > Site Manager”

  • Click on “New Site”

  • Enter the following information:
    • Host : ftp.online.net
    • Port : 21
    • Encryption : Require explicit FTP over TLS
    • Type of Authentication : Normal
    • User : webmaster@domaine.ext

  • To reconnect, you will just go back into “Site Manager …” and click again on the connect button.

In case of problems

If you are behind a router or firewall and you can not list the files, enable the passive transfer mode from “Edit> Settings”:

You have to set the number of simultaneous transfers to a maximum of 3. To do this, go to Edit / Settings, then to “Transfer” and set the number of simultaneous transfers to a maximum of 3.
