Slow Halo 2 FTP

For about a year now my FTP program has been giving me speeds of 1 kb/s for the majority of the time when I transfer maps to my Xbox. It works like this:
Starts transferring at 1mb/s
Slows down to 50kb/s
Continues to slow to 1kb/s
At about 50%, shoots up to 20mb/s
Also, it seems like my program is trying to keep the estimated time at 1 hour, 20 mins.
Can anyone help? I can't really test my mods until this is solved.

Make sure your firewall isn't limiting the programs speed.
Also make sure the program doesn't have a upload/download limit.
If you use a wireless network that also might be the reason.

Well, I know it isn't a firewall, I don't use one.
How do I check the speed limit? Also, would a different ethernet cord help?

Doubt it.
I would check in settings under Network or Upload/Download.
It might be your ethernet card.
Also what dashboard do you use?

My ethernet card i dont know, Dashboard is EvoX, settings gives me "Send Buffer Size, Recieve Buffer Size, etc"
To be specific I use SmartFTP

Even though I take a Cisco networking class I still have no idea to set up an FTP but if it were any guess here it is.
if an FTP runs on a Router and Switch *if I remember it does* check your Fast Ethernet(or normal Ethernet)configuration it should one of these two commands in hyper terminal.
Fast Ethernet
int fa 0/0
Normal I believe is
int e0 or int e 0/0
also don't forget the no shutdown command or even serial 0 make sure it has a clock rate of 56000.
And if it is non of this stuff I am talking about and I just confused you GET NEW EQUIPMENT. lol I havn't used and Xbox for Xbox live yet let alone Iun have an Xbox.

I've had a similar problem with that dash but then I installed unleash x which has an FTP speed boost built in.
Try installing the UnLeash X dashboard.

...chances are this kid isn't using a cisco 2500 series for his home network.
maybe this is a problem with the client program, try using a different one and see if anything changes.

One thing you might want to try, is disabling the QoS Packet Scheduler.
That might have something to do with it..
