Why does FTP only work on my computer from home but not at school?
For some reason, my laptop disables FTP access when I plug in to my college’s Ethernet network. But at home, where I am on DSL wireless, I can FTP fine. At school, I can FTP from other people’s computers, but not my own for some reason. I’ve tried all sorts of internet explorer settings to get it to work at school. Does anyone know what’s wrong?

They probably have blocked access to port 21 which FTP uses by default.

maybe it’s coz of your college’s firewall is blocking unknown ip addresses for safety reasons avoiding viruses attempts
