Extremely Slow Connection and Queuing

[David]

I am currently using the most updated version of Filezilla, 3.16.1 downloaded from Filezilla. I've been using this FTP for years. When I first started using it, when I clicked on Connect it would connect almost instantly. Same as when I wanted to add 2 or 3 .torrents to the queue it would be done almost instantly.

Now a days the connecting is happening so slow, I've set my timer for 5 minutes to try and connect and to try 3 times and sometimes I still can't connect. Adding another .torrent to the queue takes so long that I go and do something else and then come back and try to add another. Is there a way to fix this?
