Just few hours ago FileZilla was working fine. Then, suddenly I started to get this error:

Status: Resolving address of ftp.readtypechinese.com
Status: Connecting to 69.175.14.60:21...
Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Error:  Connection timed out
Error:  Could not connect to server

And it happens with all my sites:

Status: Resolving address of edasich.dreamhost.com
Status: Connecting to 173.236.223.223:21...
Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Error:  Connection timed out
Error:  Could not connect to server

I'm using FileZilla 3.5.0 and Ubuntu 11.10.

Any suggestions to fix this? (I already tried Passive mode and it doesn't work).

EDIT:

Ocasionally, the log goes beyond the ...waiting for welcome message:

Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Response:   220 DreamHost FTP Server
Command:    USER aleche23
Error:  Connection timed out
Error:  Could not connect to server

But the connection gets timed out again.

Weird...I just realized that I have the same problems with other FTP programs too:

gFTP:

Looking up ftp.readtypechinese.com
Trying readtypechinese.com:21
Connected to readtypechinese.com:21
220 ProFTPD 1.3.2 Server (server) [69.175.14.60]
USER [email protected]
Connection to ftp.readtypechinese.com timed out
