Author FTP Upload/Download

With the standard install of Windows XP Pro and IIS, is
upload bandwidth limited in any way be default?

Here's the situation:

3 of us are in different locations, with different ISPs.
We all have Windows XP Pro. We all have 10/100 NIC cards.
2 of us have an FTP server setup on our PCs. When anyone
attempts to download/upload from anyone else, we never go
any faster than .25-.30% of our network bandwidth (goes
about 25-30 KBs/sec.) I personally am allowed 256 KBs/sec
upload by my ISP, but it never goes above 25-30 KBs/sec.
Is this being limited by IIS? Most of the settings are
default, and bandwidth throttling is not enabled.

The one think I can think of is by default, IIS only
allows 10 connections to the FTP. Is it saying, "Max
upload 256 KB/sec, 10 users, 25-30 Kb/sec for each user,"
even when there's only one user connected?

Much thanks for any input!

Well, I don't think it's related to IIS.
it should have something to do with your connection
and traffic routing.

I have local xp pro with nic 100mbps, uploading is
few hundred K per seconds. so this proves no limit
is configured.

also for the 10connection limit, if client utilizing
many channels for upload and there's no more free
connection available it will affect the over speed as well.

Thanks for the response, but I found my problem. It was
my own ignorance. My ISP gives me 256 kbps, not 256
KB/sec. 256 kbps equals about 30 KBs/sec so I was
actually already at my max upload speed.

Thanks for the reply!
