Thanks for the suggestions. Not behind a firewall nor running one since this box has a private connection to the backup server.
This just started recently. It has been working. No, I do not know what changed. Supposedly nothing other than the usual Windows patches. FTP not allowed. Not running on the TSM servers.

Also try FTP to/from the TSM server, see if you get reasonable results. And check if you are behind a firewall.
