I can connect but not download

[keith and lori]

Hi i wanted to know if someone can help me. I use Dreamweaver and when i
connect to my site view the remote view its says connecting and it does
connect.
Then when it goes to retrieve the files the message waiting for server comes
up and then says lost connection and to try again.
I have tested connection and all ok
I have removed then re-installed dreamweaver and even changing site name
The same thing happens
So i cannot make any changes to the site. I have contacted my Webhost and
everything on there end is ok
I have no problems going to my cpanel either.
If someone has an idea i would appreciate it as i am in need of changing a few
things.
Thanks

have you tried checking the passive FTP box? It's on the remote site
definition tab.
