downloading takes bandwidth, if you don't have enough bandwidth for the server it will lag.

if you run then using the same router it might still cause lag. Also, ftp is slower in setting up as a http transfer. Try using a http server to serve the files.

It doesn't matter if the FTP and Server are seperate, they will still use the same connection I suppose..

Yes, they would still run of the same server.

However, one thing to bear in mind is what is causing the lag. It might be the connection, but just as well just the serving of the files for the clients may be causing it.

in my experience FTP servers hardly use CPU and other resources (next to bandwidth) at all.

I use an FTP called Filezilla, there is an option in the usermenu to set bandwidth option there, set it to low if you want to avoid your server lagging

I assume you mean FTP and game server are both run independently and not using your home connection? If so, there is no correlation between them that would cause your server to lag.

Since you say you get lag when a player joins and downloads files, then speak to you server host - if its not yourself - else, describe the problem better.

How about a little more detail.. pc specs, inet specs, server specs...
