With large files, however, the transfer often stalls and the connection times out if I am "pushing" the data from the desktop to the netbook. The same file "pulled" from the netbook end always transfers trouble-free.

Could you try using nautilus to ssh between the netbook and desktop? Do 
so, open up the nautilus file browser and press ctrl+L. In the address 
bar that pops up type ssh://servername. Now try to drag and drop files 
like youwould locally. If you see the same problem, it's an issue with 
ssh, if you don't see the same issue, it's a problem with FileZilla.
