Why does the connection break when downloading files?

Question

WiFi

Hello, there is such a problem: there is a laptop connected via wifi to a network (5GHz network), on a win 10 laptop, as well as an FTP client. The problem is the following: when downloading a large number of small files (I upload to a laptop or from it), let's say the files of a site - after a while the Internet connection disappears. To be more precise, sites stop opening (timeout most often), access to instant messengers also breaks. At the same time, if the connection was established earlier (let's say an RDP / SSH session somewhere) - it does not break. complete break does not occur. The load on the channel at the time of downloading files is about 5-10 megabits, with a channel of 200. In the FTP client itself, files also stop downloading. If you disable the FTP client (or stop downloading files), then after about 1-2 minutes everything is restored, but when the load is resumed, it also appears after a while. It does not depend on which FTP server to work with, it occurs only when working with an FTP client (Filezilla), other users of the same network do not see problems.

I suspect that in Windows there is a certain "optimizer", which, seeing a large number of small connections, breaks everything ...
Actually, how can this be fixed?
