This is most likely due to you using PASV mode to connect, when you should be using PORT mode. You can change these settings in your FTP program's settings.
Below, is how you can do this for CuteFTP, client we recommend and use ourselves.
This is taken right out of the program's 'Help' file:
" Socket error = #10060
10060 is a Connection Time-out error that usually appears when the client does not receive a response from the server for a specific command.
Most often this occurs when you try to connect in PASV mode to a server that prefers PORT for data connections. If you see an error log similar to the one following, right click the problem site and choose Site Properties, click the TYPE tab and change the Data Connection Type to Use PORT.
COMMAND:> PASV
227 Entering Passive Mode (xxx,xx,xxx,xx,x,xxx).
COMMAND:> LIST
STATUS:> Connecting ftp data socket xxx.xx.xxx.xx:xxxx...
ERROR:> Can't connect to remote server. Socket error = #10060.
ERROR:> Failed to establish data socket.
If you still receive a 10060 error, the server may be trying to send a listing for a very large directory (with many thousands of files) causing the client to time-out while waiting. Try increasing the time-out value under Tools > Global Options > Transfer > Reconnect and resume in [n] seconds if nothing received, to a higher value, such as 45 or 60 seconds."
Dedicated Semi-Managed Server Review I've been using AYKSolutions for about 2 years now and their support and servers have been great. They assisted me with the transition of all my websites and databases from my old server onto their system with no problem. If I ever need them for support or a change they respond fast and always keep me up to date with the status of my support ticket. I highly recommend using this company especially if you're looking for someone to assist with server management. Best of all their cost is great!
You can trust your business with AYKsolutions After a horrible experience with my prior host that left me with over 14 hours of downtime, AYKSolutions came in, took care of the transfer completely and made my life easier. When they say their servers are semi-managed, it means they take care of more then most managed server hosting companies. Average ticket response time? 2-5 minutes. One time i n the middle of the night it took 30 minutes. Problems that I create are fixed immediately and they take care of their customers. Artyom is the owner, who is somehow capable of not sleeping. He's always there to take care of everything with a personal touch. 3 AM on a Saturday? Not an issue for AYKSolutions. Trust me, I'm very thorough in researching a company. When it comes to business, you can never be too careful. I trust my business with AYKSolutions
I had never heard of AYK Solutions before, but they had an awesome deal I couldn't pass up on WHT. So far the service has been exceptional, and the server is rock solid. I'll be moving my other servers here soon!
