this is normal with very asymmetric dsl connections.
when you completely saturate your upstream, download's ACK packets get queued, which in turn causes those slowdowns.
if you cap your upload speed 5-10kb below it's maximum, that will virtually solve your slow browsing issue.

I do not agree that this is 'normal' as earlier versions of flashfxp do not exhibit this behaviour (I have tested a couple) and neither do the main ftp clients - and like most here I have tried quite a few. The last time I tried them all (say about 13) was about 48 hours ago, just before I purchased a flash fxp license - not one exhibited this behaviour and not one help file suggested cutting your connection speed so that it actually works properly.

With an upload speed capacity of about 30K, the idea of limiting it by one third so I can still browse is rather funny. Not what I expect from an ftp client. Because many people use an ftp client with the express desire of uploading and downloading/browsing at the same time without needing recourse to special settings and/or capping limitations. It's just one of those ftp simplicity things.

You know it might require looking at.
