The second connection can be differentiated into active and passive modes.<\/p>\n<p>With the active mode, the ftp server attempts to establish a connection to the client (server -&gt; client). However, this can be blocked with the client&#8217;s firewall, and a timeout may occur. As a solution to this problem, you can use the passive mode.<\/p>\n<p>With the passive mode, a connection is built from the client to the server (client -&gt; server). The method for activating the passive mode differs between different client programs. For that reason, you should check your program&#8217;s help guides.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"instructions\"><\/h3>\n<h3 id=\"instructions\">Instructions<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Windows<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In Windows, use the following instructions to add your Storage Box as a network address via FTP:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open Windows Explorer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Windows 7<\/strong>: On the left, click on <em>Computer<\/em> and then at the top on <em>Add a network location<\/em>.<br \/>\n<strong>Windows 8\/10<\/strong>: On the left, click on <em>This PC<\/em>.
