Could you try using nautilus to ssh between the netbook and desktop?
Do so, open up the nautilus file browser and press ctrl+L. In the
address bar that pops up type ssh://servername. Now try to drag and
drop files like youwould locally. If you see the same problem, it's an
issue with ssh, if you don't see the same issue, it's a problem with
FileZilla.
I have always found Nautilus (or GVFS) to be dog slow, regardless of
internet speed.

I use Filezilla a lot to transfer data between a desktop and a
netbook, via a wireless router. Sometimes these files are big (> 300 MB).
With small files there are no problems regardless of which direction
the transfer goes, or whether I am "pushing" or "pulling". With large
files, however, the transfer often stalls and the connection times out
if I am "pushing" the data from the desktop to the netbook. The same
file "pulled" from the netbook end always transfers trouble-free.
Filezilla isn't exactly the best of software but I can't think of any
good alternative GUI based apps. I would use SCP or rsync. rsync might
not be a good solution for the netbook.
E.g.
scp -P 22 ~/dir/files/* user@remote:/dir/wherever
