Why backups using cable connection seems slow compared to downloads?
Cable based Internet connections usually offer high download speeds and lower upload speeds, and the difference between the two could be as high as 10 times. A typical example could be an upload speed of 150Kb/sec, and a download speed of 1.5Mb/sec. While the IBackup application would usually run at speeds close to the maximum possible connection speed allowed. It may vary sometimes depending on Internet bottlenecks at various points in the connection. You can achieve a significantly better performance using the IBackup For windows application for your backups, with compression and incremental options enabled.
