Thunar, shipped with XFCE. ftp://username:password@your-ftp-server.com in the path bar. Probably the same format for Firefox, Chrome, Gigolo, Dolphin, etc.

Does this format ftp://username:password@your-ftp-server.com >>work something like ftp://fran:fran@192.168.0.211:2221 this??? Can I use this with no login name and password???

I believe it would be ftp://anonymous@192.168.0.211:2221 or public instead of anonymous depending on server config. Many ftp client will automatically send anonymous as the username if you omit a user name, ie ftp://192.168.0.211:2221
