slow ftp

Greetings,

I'm experiencing very slow ftp transfer rates from a particular site. We are
connected to this site via private network and ISDN router. Our network
admin states: " The ISDN line should give upwards to 100kbs when you take
into account line management and other traffic." but I am getting rates as
low as 2 kbs. Now for the gotcha - I HAVE to connect to this site via a
browser so naturally I'm using Netscape 4.78 (have to use RSA security, etc
- site will not allow CL ftp connection). We've checked the line and the
latency is negligable with no packet loss. Is Netscape the culprit here or
could it be on the (their) server side?

Note that internally, using Command Line ftp, transfer rates to my box range
are in the range of 180kbs.

Ultra 10, 320 Mb RAM, Solaris 2.6 patched

TIA
