When using the WRQ protocol (default) you always hope that FFT (fast file
transfer) will be negotiated.  This is usually what happens unless you are
going through a firewall or some other device (e.g., NAT) that disallows
access to the ports ( >30767) that FFT will try to use or modifies the ip
address.

Another option is to use either the Reflection FTP Client or Reflection FTP
protocol from within the Reflection for HP File Transfer dialog since FTP
ports are not commonly blocked.
