Log into the portal, select connection settings and then the firewall option.
In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links

Go to Home > Toolbox > Content Sharing > configure:
Somewhere on that page there's a tick box to enable the routers FTP server -- remove the tick.
IF you can't find the setting, let me know and I'll plug in my tg582 and hopefully give better guidelines.

I haven't had one of those router to check.
If there's no USB port there's no use for a FTP server but that's no guarantee that Technicolor would disable the server.
IIRC the setting is present in older firmware version of Plusnet fibre routers.

Quote from: npr Disable the "FTP server" in the routers "content sharing".
Thanks but it's already disabled (by default).

Quote from: Oldjim I wonder if that comes with updated firmware as mine shows and I am on 8.4.4.J but not fibre obviously
I don't seem to be able to find the firmware revision but I can find the software version (10.2.5.2.FO)

Quote from: Townman Use the PlusNET firewall.
Log into the portal, select connection settings and then the firewall option.
OK, done that, thanks:
With the setting at "Low", things were worse than with the firewall set to "Off"
With the setting at "High", all common ports are now stealthed (inc. port 21)
I'll leave it set at "High" for a while and see if I have any problems

Quote from: DaveyH The port is closed, so does it really matter?
Yes, it does matter (to me).

It's simply a matter of "The less that people see, the better"
