I have a Winows 7 desktop, a Windows 8 laptop and an Android Phone (Moto G4) sharing the same imternet WiFi connection and router.and both computers are on the same home network.
I wanted to use the Opus FTP capabilities to connect each computer to the phone.
On the W8 laptop Opus FTP connected to the phone correctly (first time and very simple) and it works fine.
On the W7 desktop the phone connects properly entering the host address in Windows Explorer, where I can see folder and contents. But when I set up Opus FTP on the W7 laptop, using the same paramaters as on on the W7 desktop I get
"Invalid PROXY name or address : No proxy address entered"
Obviously I would prefer to be able to use the superior Opus FTP on the desktop so if you have suggestions as to something I have missed I would be very grateful.
I have used Opus for years (thanks for that) but this is my first venture on the forums, so I apologise if I have not posted correctly or I have missed something obvious.
Check the FTP sites are set up exactly the same on both machines.
Please show us the full FTP logs from the machine where it works, and the one where it doesn't, so we can compare and see where things are different.
Here are the logs:

There are 3 differences in flags and site flags - can that possibly be the answer?
Anyway thank you for your quick reply and I hope this covers what you requested
The one that doesn't work (Windows 7 machine) has the Proxy tab in its address book entry set to SOCKS5 Proxy (without a proxy being defined).
Thank you very much, I'd missed that. Working now.
