If you want faster download speeds from your FTP server, why not use your NTL/commercial webspace to store it and give your family?

If you use I-web, it only costs ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£10 per year, and you could put the photos in a password protected gallery (for free) so if any relatives aren't computer savvy they can save the pictures too. With I-web you can probably (KingPhoenix will tell you for sure) set up extra FTP accounts with different permissions (read only, for example), so you don't have to give out your master FTP login details. Most importantly, the download speeds you get from I-web (or anyone else) will be more than your personal upload allowance.
