That's kind of them, but the list of options they provided didn't really make
any sense. Possibly they and you had different degrees of success due to
different libcurl versions or something. See my explanations of the specific
options below:

> c.setopt(c.FTP_USE_EPSV, 1)

That's default.

> c.setopt(c.QUOTE, ['TYPE I'])

That's default

> c.setopt(c.CONNECTTIMEOUT, 30)

That doesn't alter what libcurl sends or receives, only how long it'll wait
for a connect to succeed.

> c.setopt(c.TIMEOUT, 300)

This just sets a limit for how long a single request/transfer may take.

> c.setopt(c.NOSIGNAL, 1)

This only makes libcurl avoid the use of signals for timing out slow name
resolves.

> c.setopt(c.WRITEDATA, fp)

That's used for the write callback.
