First of all, there is no problem with pinging the host 192.168.1.100 and accessing the Internet. This means that there must be no problem with your network access. Then does your wget host ftp mean 100? Does your wget format and ftp require user password authentication?
You can simply use telnet 192.168.1.100 21 to test whether the port is open
It was said later that there is no problem installing xubuntu, so I suspect that the firewall of ubuntu server 11.10 blocks incoming requests, causing it to keep connecting because no response is received. You can use telnet to see if all service ports are open.
