IP Camera Won't Connect to Filezilla

[messmore232]

Camera is connected to my router over the WiFi. I believe I have the Filezilla settings down, as the camera will connect when I disable the Windows Firewall. I tried to add exceptions 10, 21, 37777, 37778, 80, 554, and 443. I also opened these ports on my router. I'm at a loss at this point and I don't think it should be necessary to completely disable my firewall to connect the camera to my server. I'd appreciate any help.

Thank you.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

May I ask what it is that you are doing?

I use Filezilla on a regular basis but only to upload existing files on my computer to an ftp server. I've never heard of it being used to acquire images from a camera.

messmore232,
See if this guide helps you. Look for Windows Firewall Exception.

Longedge,
Filezilla provides both client and ftp server software, and Amcrest cameras have ftp setting to send files.

@jack7 thanks, I should have thought of that . I would only say that I find my NAS is a better option than having to leave my computer on 24/7 but no solution ever fits all situations.
