Divide and conquer. If you had only one DSL line could you successfully ftp? i.e. Is the problem at your end or the server end? Does the server end require active or passive mode? Is there an access-list or firewall at the remote end? At your end? Once that works then consider forcing traffic out one interface. Policy routing based on traffic to the ftp server could be directed.
