Try to lower MTU size if you are using PPP link, this may help. I said 'may'...
Oh well, I forgot the most simple 'cure': at the same time start a couple of ping sessions and and one or two tracerote's to the same host your are ftp'ing from. Sooner or later you will be able to break your ISP's "shaper". Beware, if you start >50 traceroutes at once you may receive rather furious reaction from ISP's sysadmin :-))) Cheers, Ivan -- ----------------------------------------------------------- "Ivan Adzhubei" <ivan@protein.bio.msu.su> ----------------------------------------------------------- - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
