    After not being able to find anything important in research of iphone backup

    settings, I did find this which describes my problem exactly

    My QoS recent change was not quite as fulfilling tonight as the last in the

    last few nights. I thought the QoS tweak had corrected the bandwidth

    problem. But, tonight's backup reared the saturation again. However it

    didn't seem quite as bad, and for a shorter duration.

     

    So I think the network saturation has been retarded, bu is still present,

    although to a lessor degree.

You never mentioned your UP load speed. What is it?

This circuit is DSL, and the quickest offered for the DSL type. I know

the DL speed is forecast as 6Mbps. But, I'm unsure of UL speed.

This is ATT. I don't know what "jitter" is, but 43ms latency seems

quite excessive to me. Although anemic, at least it's consistent.

 

The reason for my concern is that the older phone produced no "hog-

ging" at all. Then, the new phone rolled into town, and everything

clogged up during these synchronization process(es). But, my change

seems to have throttled the phone's network dominance. And, I've not

had any complaints regarding other phone functions. So, it appears

that all is well for the moment. I just wanted to verify that my change

was the customary adjustment for my problem.

 

 

Thanks.
