wget an ftp folder

Hi,

I'd like to download an entire folder structure to pb903 using wget.

I tried the following on my local machine - it worked flawless

wget -r --ftp-user='user' --ftp-password='*******' ftp://192.168.1.109/../user/ereader/

Mainly based on thread https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=115657&highlight=wget112&page=7

I hoped to engineer my script, like this:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
#       License: GPLv2
#       Author: review (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/member.php?u=88891)
#       Modified by mephi
#Disable powersave
echo test > /sys/power/wake_lock
#Activate powersave again at any kind of exit from the script
trap 'echo test > /sys/power/wake_unlock' EXIT
# connect only to network if we're not already connected
mypid="$(ps |grep netagent|grep connect)"
if [[ "$mypid" == "" ]]; then 
	/ebrmain/bin/netagent connect
fi



mkdir devgettest
cd /mnt/ext2/devgettest

wget -r --ftp-user='user' --ftp-password='*******'  ftp://192.168.1.109/../user/ereader/

# disconnect only from network if we were not connected when script started.
if [[ "$mypid" == "" ]]; then 
	/ebrmain/bin/netagent disconnect
fi
It's not working. Anyone having an idea why?
