FTP Not Working

Hello I have a ps3 fat modded and I want to use ftp transfer but for a reason i get this error.
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
Connection failed.
I tried multiple ftp programs and the result is the same.
 
When you are configuring it (and before using the FTP app)... open a command line in PC and use the "ping" command to verify that the PS3 is replying

Filezilla is good enought btw
 
Thanks for the reply but i do not get it when i try to ping with the command ping -t it is not working I get this error Destination host unreachable.and instead to go for 192.168.1.2 it tries 192.168.1.3.

First you need to take a look at XMB network settings in the PS3 to find the IP of the PS3, lets say is 192.168.1.3

Then in PC type command:
Code: 
ping 192.168.1.3

And you are going to see how the PC sends 3 packets and the PS3 should reply, and you can see the time required to do this communication
The time doesnt matters (unless is too low), what matters is if the PS3 is replying
If you dont see the PS3 replying is because there is some problem in your network setup, could be bad wires, or bad config in the router or other things
 
Pinging 192.168.1.2 with 32 bytes of data:

It means the PC and the PS3 are not in the same network, so dont waste time trying different FTP softwares because is not going to work

The problem is in your network setup, either software settings, or hardware
 
Connect to your wifi that your computer that your ftp client is on.

If your using webman tool then your PS3 should be using its ftp server on start up hold down select to see your IP address. If you don't have webman then launch multiman. It should have your IP address of your PS3 in the bottom of the screen.
Use that IP in your ftp program.. I use fillezilla

Your PS3 doesn't have a ftp server unless you use a app of somekind . Either webman which I recommend or multiman does the trick. Webman will launch the server on startup which is handy because if your transfering many games/files it will freeze and you'll need to restart your PS3 from time to time. This is only the case for transfering many small files.
