OK. I don't have to rewrite it. Imports System.Net Friend Class MyWebClient Inherits WebClient Protected Overloads Overrides Function GetWebRequest(ByVal address As Uri) As WebRequest Dim req As FtpWebRequest = CType(MyBase.GetWebRequest(address), FtpWebRequest) req.UsePassive = False Return req End Function End Class I have found it , and now does work!

I don’t have to rewrite it.

Imports System.Net

Friend Class MyWebClient
Inherits WebClient

Protected Overloads Overrides Function GetWebRequest(ByVal address As Uri) As WebRequest
Dim req As FtpWebRequest = CType(MyBase.GetWebRequest(address), FtpWebRequest)
req.UsePassive = False
Return req
End Function
End Class

See the example here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webclient.getwebrequest.aspx I reckon you have already figured that out, and that's still more than four lines of code, but here you go anyhow.
