Username: myusername
Password: mypassword

I tried using ports 21 and 22 to see if it made a difference, but it didn't.

Are there specific settings that I should use for SFTP?

Thank you.
On some servers, you need to do myusername@primarydomain where myusername is the user's cPanel username and primarydomain is the main domain on their cPanel account.
