the speed of FTP always depends on the speed of the "bottleneck" ot the
actual connection!

on ISDN B channel has a speed of 64K BITs /second, that is
- omitting any stop bits etc. 8K BYTES /second, so you already have some
data compression in your connection achieving 10..12K bytes/second
Hope I made it a bit clearer. To compare:
with my 14400 KBit/s modem I achieve 1645 kbytes/s at best conditions.
Best wishes
