  • Windows 10 Pro (64-bit) Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19042.1165]
  • NppFTP v0.27.9 unicode
  • Notepad++ v8.1.4 (64-bit)

09202021 switched from Sprint to T-Mobile. NppFTP will not connect to private ftp server when connected to the internet using T-Mobile hotspot.

Sprint would connect with FTP, 21, passive, try password authentication.

Latest FileZilla (v3.55.1) connects with default settings:

  • FTP
  • Port: Default (= 21)
  • Encryption: Use explicit FTP over TLS if available
  • Transfer mode: Default (= passive)
  • Logon type: Normal

T-Mobile merged with Sprint in 2020. Sprint’s approximately 54M customers will be moved to the T-Mobile network. T-Mobile expects the merge to take three years.

Update NppFTP security / authentication protocols.

I seem to have this issue (or similar) on more and more servers. It never used to be a problem, but now it does not simply work, but it seems to work less often.

I have to admit that I do not research this in depth. I simply stop using NP++ and SFTP.

@somebadhat There is no version 0.27.9? Is that just a typo for 0.29.7? The usage of the current openssl version with TLS v1.3 is blocked unfortunately by #265, so this issue might be related to it. You could try https://github.com/ashkulz/NppFTP/releases/tag/v0.30.11 to test, if a FTPES connection is possible, but dir changes after the connection will fail.
