Similar to the problem described before, my sims can't connect to the ftp server. The icon shows full connectivity, with both computers lighted green. But every connection attempt gives back "Time out, disconnecting" message. Today, I had just one successful transfer right after I started the sim. Since then I only got back my own bots or had the time-out message.
It used to work fine for me, but the last week or so had been horrible.
