slower download in passive mode

We're starting to see a trend with isps where port mode is faster than passive mode, At the moment we're not entirely sure why. It could be some sort of throttling scheme implemented by the isp.

I didn't know that I'll get so much replies starting this topic... thx but I don't think that has something do with the isps cause other ftp clients work with the same speed in passive and active modes.
