client closed connection

Hi
I can't seem to connect and don't understand what client closed connection signifies.
Here is the thread:
SmartFTP v4.0.1054.0
[20:22:07] Resolving host name "ftp.smartstarteducation.com.au"
[20:22:07] Connecting to 116.0.23.200 Port: 21
[20:22:07] Connected to ftp.smartstarteducation.com.au.
[20:23:07] Timeout (60s).
[20:23:07] Active Help: https://www.smartftp.com/support/kb/74
[20:23:07] Client closed the connection.
[20:23:07] Connect failed. Waiting

I've just downloaded the new version because I hoped that would save me, but still same problem.
Hope you can tell me how to update my website.
Thanks
