There's a sub-window in FileZilla  (by default at the upper end) where
status messages, commands and responses are logged. Are there status
messages appearing in that line (about every 30 seconds or so), something
like "sending FTP keep-alive command"?
The time-outs are thrown by your server, if you are inactive for some time
(300 seconds is a typical time for a time-out). The FTP client has to make
sure, that the connection keeps alive by sending commands with no effect,
setting the time-out counter to zero again. If there are "sending FTP
keep-alive command" messages in that log, what kind of command follows? A
typical keep-alive command is "NOOP" (no operation, telling the server: "I
have no commands for you, but I am still there. Keep up the connection").
Some servers ignore the "NOOP" command.
Using another client _can_ help, but the basic problem lies with the server.
So asking the server administrator might help.

I am not sure about its security, but I use FireFTP, a FireFox extension -

Thank you very much, Marcus and Pat! This is very helpful.

I'll pursue your tips and will see which is the best solution.

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron

P.S.: I'm off to help put to a rest the body of a friend young enough to be
my son ... So, sorry if I seem a bit distracted.
