FTP connection timeout – what to check?

Host = domain or server IP, port 21 (FTP) or 22 (SFTP), enable passive mode in FileZilla, copy credentials from Plesk.

FTP or SFTP – which is better?

SFTP (port 22) is more secure and standard on NexoraHost/Plesk. FTP (port 21) only if explicitly needed.

Username = full email or FTP user from Plesk. Reset password. No spaces when copy-pasting.

Quick answer: FTP/SFTP issues: use SFTP port 22, passive mode in FileZilla, copy credentials exactly from Plesk.

If you landed here: FileZilla shows "Connection timed out", "530 Login failed" or "Could not connect to server".
