I poked around the --help for wget, and experimented, and could find no
way to give wget the username and password for logging in. I tried links
g ftp://(ftpaddress) and also had no luck - bad FTP login.

wget does not like -u or user: followed by the user name.

Is there some way to log into an ftp site with links or wget? Neither
asks me for username or password.
