How to Configure FTP with R4L Hosting Service
To connect to either our AHS paid hosting or free 10MB hosting, you will use the following settings:
Host Name: ftp.R4L.com
Username: yourdomain.com replace this with your domain name without the www
Password: ********* the password you use to log in to manage your domain
Our FTP server supports connecting with plain ftp, and well as encrypted ftps and ftpes.
