[About 'Map network drive', 'Add a network location' and 'net use'.]

  AFAICT from all references sofar and some testing:

1. 'Map network drive' and 'net use' can not handle FTP syntax, period.

2. 'Add a network location' *can* handle FTP syntax, and *can* handle a
   (FTP) port number.

3. (Windows) File Explorer *can* handle FTP syntax and *can* handle a
   (FTP) port number.
   This is irrelevant for the problem at hand, but is used to verify
   that the FTP server is working correctly.

  In order to verify 2., I needed both a public FTP server (because the
FTP servers on Android (have to) use non-standard port numbers) and a/my
Android FTP server (ES File Explorer).

  As the public FTP server I used 'ftp://speedtest.tele2.net'.

Verify 3.:
==========

- The FTP URL 'ftp://speedtest.tele2.net' should work in your browser
  and in (Windows) File Explorer.

- The FTP URL 'ftp://speedtest.tele2.net:21' - i.e. with the default FTP
  port number 21 - should also work in your browser and in (Windows)
  File Explorer.

- The FTP URL 'ftp://speedtest.tele2.net:80' - i.e. with  a port number
  other than the default FTP port number 21 - should FAIL in your
  browser and in (Windows)

Verify 2.:
==========

- (Windows) File Explorer -> This PC -> Add a network location -> Next
  -> Choose a custom network location -> Next -> Internet or network
  address: -> ftp://speedtest.tele2.net -> Next -> (leave as is) -> Next
  -> (leave as is) -> Next -> untick 'Open this network location when I
  click Finish.' -> Finish.

- 'This PC' will now show a Network Location 'speedtest.tele2.net',
  which will open on a double-click.

- If you delete and re-add the Network Location, but now enter
  ftp://speedtest.tele2.net:21 as the 'Internet or network address:',
  you will see that that also works.

- If you delete and re-add the Network Location, but now enter
  ftp://speedtest.tele2.net:80 as the Internet or network address:', you
  will see that that FAILs, which it is *supposed* to do, because 80 is
  the incorrect port number.

- So we have verified that:

> 2. 'Add a network location' *can* handle FTP syntax, and *can* handle a
  (FTP) port number.

  We can also use 'Add a network location' with a FTP server on Android,
by using (for example) ftp://192.168.0.109:3721 as the 'Internet or
network address:', but that does not offer much new functionality,
because we can already enter ftp://192.168.0.109:3721 directly in the
'path' bar of (Windows) File Explorer, so this is just a way of not have
to re-enter the FTP URL.

  The FTP server is still not accessible *outside* File Explorer (and
web browsers), i.e. it is *not* accessible by normal 'DOS' command, like
'dir', etc..

  So we're stuck with:

> 1. 'Map network drive' and 'net use' can not handle FTP syntax, period.

  If someone thinks differently, then please show *real* *working*
examples with *real* FTP servers and port numbers, i.e. something like:

[ftp://]<host>.<domain>:<port>

  Where host, domain and port are real.
