Cloud backup extremely slow
4.5
Backups take hours or days to complete even for small amounts of data.
Symptoms
- Progress bar barely moves
- High data usage
- Device feels slow during backup
Possible Causes
- Slow upload speed
- ISP throttling
- Background app interference
Step-by-Step Fix
1
Test Upload Speed
Check your internet upload speed; backups are limited by this.
2
Backup at Night
Schedule backups during off-peak hours.
3
Use Wired Connection
If on a PC, use ethernet for much faster backup speeds.
When to See a Technician
The first backup is always the slowest. Subsequent backups only upload changed data.
