Ok this doesn't work for me with latest trunk, this is a public ftp so 
you should be able to connect.

(let ((remote-path "/ftp:anonymous <at> speedtest.tele2.net:/1KB.zip")
      (local-path "~/Downloads/1KB.zip"))
  (if (file-regular-p remote-path)
      (progn
    (message "File %s is a regular file" remote-path)
    (copy-file remote-path local-path t t t t))
    (progn
      (message "File %s is a directory" remote-path)
      (copy-directory remote-path local-path t t t))))
