Hi
I'm in China, where everything internet-wise from Europe has to go through the great firewall. At first, I couldn't believe my 2(ish)MBPS broadband was downloading at 6kbps. But then I got a download accelerator (DAP) and have managed downloads up to about 215kbps.
Now I need to upload the contents of a CD to a FTP site of a company, and I'm just using explorer to drag and drop the files across. As I suspected, it's impossibly slow. I'd send the CD in the post, which would probably get there quicker, but you're not allowed to do that in China.
So - Is there such a thing as an upload accelerator? Or does it not work like that? Would getting hold of some FTP software make the transfer any quicker?
Cheers!
