I have just installed Linux Mint Petra 16 after trying more live distributions. The problem I am facing right now, is that I can't upload anything on any ftp server. The upload speed doesn't exceed 0.20kb, which is practically 0, it starts at about 20KB/s and than quickly drops to 0.3-0.5KB/s.When downloading from any ftp server, everything is fine. I had this problem with any Linux distribution I tried (live instances). I tested my speed, and got about 30 Mbps for both uploading and downloading. I also have Windows 7 installed on my pc and I have no problems whatsoever there. I tried different ftp clients and the result is always the same.
Same ftp upload issue on any live distribution I tried
