How to Use FileZilla With U-verse
FileZilla is a file transfer protocol, used to transfer files from a computer to a server online. FileZilla's operation is not dependent upon a specific Internet service provider as it will usually work with any Internet service. However, some AT&T U-Verse customers have trouble getting FileZilla to log on and transfer files to their server. This problem is either due to the U-Verse firewall, or not having the correct user name and password to log in.
