Unable to Upload to FTP - Help!

Hi -- please excuse the fact that I am a novice...

I am trying to upload video to my client's FTP server. I am on a powerPC mac powerbook G4. I am plugged into the internet via the wall connection in my school dorm.

The FTP programs I am trying are Fetch and/or Forklift.

I was sucessfully able to upload around 1.08 GB, however once a new upload hits a certain point, the connection "times out". It's always at the exact same point, with different clips, different programs.

What can I do to get past this barrier?? Also, my connection speeds have been around 90kb/s.... any tips on increasing this speed?

Thank you very much in advance... quick responses would be helpful. I have to get 6 more gigs uploaded ASAP!

TJ

This is probably because the webhost has put a limit on the maximum size for each file.
I'd suggest splitting the file (split archive?).
90kB/s seams a decent upload speed... you can test if this is the limit for your upload or your server's download on several connection speed test sites.
