FileZilla is not installed by default, To install FileZilla on Ubuntu 18.04, Open the terminal and execute:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install filezilla   

Connecting to the FTP server with FileZilla

To connect to a FTP Server, Open the FileZilla FTP client and type the domain name or IP address of the FTP server in the Host field. Provide the FTP username and password and FTP port( you can leave the port empty if your server use default FTP port 21) and click on Quick connect button.

I would recommend a clean installation from the repository 'universe' in Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS. You may have to remove everything that smells of 'xenial', 'yakkety' or any other previous version in order to keep 18.04 alias 'bionic' clean.

In an installed system 'universe' is already active, but in a live or persistent live system of standard Ubuntu, you must run

sudo add-apt-repository universe

and after that you can install filezilla and many other program packages

sudo apt update
sudo apt install filezilla

I tested now (in a persistent live Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS) and it works. I get a working version of filezilla.
