i've tried that but its still not allowing me to connect, the FTP details i got from my hosting service is exactly what i put in. what else can i try ?
Check your connection details with your hosting provider.
Make sure that your IP is not blocked on the hosting.
Try connecting to your hosting via FTP using FileZilla or something similar.
Temporarily disable your antivirus, firewall and any other protection.
