Help with Server Time outs .........

I keep getting servier time outs. I have set the Passive but that didn't help.
I am on Dish but also have tried to use AOL with no good results.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

PASV mode has no effect on the maintenence of the connection. You need to be using Keep Alive.

Tools > Settings > Connection > Keep Alive. Add a command called "LIST" (without the quotes), and enable the keep alive for every 120 seconds.
