We accept Sitepad IP: 192.198.80.4 and 91.121.54.72 Please advise what other ports are we required to open for data communication during your FTP (insecure) session.

Once you have decided which ports to allow please open those ports in the Firewall. ----------------------- Webuzo - Multi User Hosting Control Panel AMPPS - Best WordPress/PHP/MySQL development tool
