Indeed - We host a server behind the the IS backbone. Here's an upload and then a download done on 128k MyWireless:
ftp> put test

ftp> get test

1172616 bytes received in 206 secs (5.6 Kbytes/sec)
... and all this while an ISO download and other downloads was going on - hence the slower download. And all done remotely on privet's system at home ;-) (sorry privet!)
