I have the Tiny BSD on my  harddisk and want to download the distribution files
by ftp.
The system can find my Ne2000 card. I can type

ifconfig ne0 <my adress> netmask <my netmask>
route add default <my gateway>

without any error. Then I type 

ftp <distribution host>

and after a few minutes I got the error: 

connect: Connetion time out.

My system is a 486/50MHZ . 
Any ideas to fix the problem?

Thanks
