Starting yesterday it takes nearly an hour to FTP upload a new file folder with several new files in it. A few days ago it took two or three minutes to upload the same file folder. After taking two minutes to open a link, it uploads the file in a short time, then spends another two minutes opening another link for the next file, then quick upload followed by another two minute delay. Why does it take so much time to open a link, and why does each file have to open another link? I did note each file link changes (the number changes) to a different link to open and upload the next file. So the delays are not caused by the uploads themselves, but the waits for an ever changing FTP link to open. I use WS FTP95 LE so apparently my FTP program is not at fault.........everyone no matter what FTP program they use are experiencing unacceptable delays in uploading files. A change should be for the better shouldn't it?
