    Sure everyone can connect from their C-Panel.  You still haven't told us if you can connect to your remote server with Filezilla.

    Try connecting to your server with a dedicated S/FTP client like Filezilla.  If that fails to connect, then DW is not the problem.

    They might have changed the remote root folder and you're just uploading to the wrong spot on the server. 

     

    Verify the Server Root Directory with GoDaddy and make sure DW matches in your server settings.

      GoDaddy typically uses a Server Root of public_html on their Linux hosting plans.

      Did you clear your browser's cache and history?

      Did you test with a different browser?

      Can you post a URL?
