Answer 1

Need to know FTP access address, user name, and password. Using FTP client software management server (virtual host) on file more convenient.

Answer 2

If I am understanding your question correctly, you need an FTP client. Search for and download "File Zilla". From there, you simply sign into the FTP client using your IP, Username and Password. Default port is 21, and the IP should begin with ftp://.

Answer 3

You can use command put and get to upload/download a file to/from ftp server.



Here is an example:

% ftp your_router_ip

ftp> ls

ftp> get README.txt

ftp> put upload.txt

ftp> bye

Answer 4

I selected Bluehost because they make it easy.
