Breadbox Ensemble (PC/GEOS) has an FTP tool included (File Transfer).
Looks a bit like Norton Commander (two windows).

This is promising, but I read over at winworld that it requires 386+ to run this. Don't know if this is true or not, may try it, but the 286 system also has EGA, so almost need a textmode type program.
Makes sense, I heard about this, too. Breadbox has had dropped pre-386 support. Officially, I mean, which maybe isn't necessarily a technical thing.
Previous versions had dropped 8086 or PC/XT support for performance reasons, but could still run if forced (also by installing a NEC processor).
Anyway, I haven't tried the later versions on anything below a 486, so I can't confirm.
The icon says "8086", so I assume it's still using 16-Bit Real-Mode code.
If that's really the case, at least an 80286 might be able to run it. With the help of EMU386, maybe.
