I have an Access Point set up on my Raspberry Pi 4 using a wifi dongle and hostapd. Everything works great, but when I start to transfer a file over FTP, the connection aborts at around 1 GB and I have to reconnnect to the AP.

Is there a way to solve this problem?

I have seen similar behavior because of weak firmware. Not sure if it also helps in your case but it might be worth a try. You can downgrade the firmware to a more stable version. Have a look at Access point as WiFi router/repeater, optional with bridge. At the beginning there is a part, labeled IMPORTANT UPDATE on 2020-09-02, that described how to downgrade the firmware.
