Errr, since when is a router needed? I just have mine plugged into a NIC card and it works fine....

It could be your OS. Windows 95? Why even mention that..anyone who has that on their computer as the main OS is really living in the past. 98 and 98SE arent 100% supported by Microsoft anymore. ME has horrible networking capabilities since it is based off of Windows 95. Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP are really the best option for this..

Although, what FTP client are you using? I've had trouble with some uploading to a web server, but never my xbox. Try to make sure nothing is interfering or that there arent any weird symbols or characters in the map name.

I don't see why a switch wouldn't work. Does your PC lose connection with your xbox at all? Or is your switch bad? Alot of reasons why it could be like this.
