To connect to the hosting via FTP requires a special FTP client, in this example we will use "FileZilla "

FileZilla is one of the best free FTP managers that will help you download and upload files from FTP servers. The program has a convenient and pleasant interface, there are many supported languages, as well as a variety of settings and features.

To connect we need the following information:

  • Login
  • Password
  • Host or FTP-server
  • Port for ftp connection we need "21"

This information can be seen in the properties of your order.
