Yes, it should work, even in a web browser as long as it supports FTP.

Command:PASV
Error:Connection timed out
Error:Failed to retrieve directory listing

The PASV command seems to have failed for some reason. Is it possible to not use the PASV command?

It should work fine for annonymous users, they can download anything/everything. It's also possible to log in with your BBS username and password, if you have one, and up and download QWK packets.
