"Can't connect to the server" error is NOT a FW pr 171w4v

[thoste]

Occasionally when I try to something with FDM I get a
"Can't connect to the server" error
see snapshot:

This is NOT a firewall problem!!

When I came back later (5-6 hours) or even reboot then everything works WITHOUT having changed something in the firewall.

So it must be an error of FDM.

Morevoer I would appreciate to get a more informative error message than just "Can't connect to the server".

What about:
"Can't connect to 123.234.345.0045 (ftp.foobar.com) on port 2345"

I suggest to change this in the next release

So it must be an error of FDM.

Or a server problem.

So it must be an error of FDM.

Or a server problem.

Mainly caused due to firewall blocking the connection. Try creating an exception for FDM in ur firewall
