I was not getting more than 2.5 K-bytes per sec, that is not right. It is slow for sure, unless other people were downloading from you at the same time. I don't think so though, because I tried two different times, about 1 hour appart. Anyway, have you made sure that your FTP server is not limiting your speed to around 2.5 KB/Sec? I have an FTP server running from my Linux machine also and I get speeds of around 27 K-bytes per second. So, the only thing I can think of is that your FTP server is limiting the speed. I can't not imagine what else could cause this to happen. David B.
