cox online backup is a joke { i hope someone high up in cox sees this!!! }

why offer 10tb of storage then limit up and download speeds to under 600kbs on a connection of 150mbs its gonna take so long to do any kind of backup it is not worth it it took over a month to upload 124 gb so how would anyone ever be able to use  the 10 tb of storage being offered with my internet package offered  

too bad i would of loved to be able to backup 6 tb or more but id never be able to get it done in a year i contacted online backup and they said nothing can be done

im just sorry cox put a good net name on a bad backup server

after spending a hour on hold thinking there was a problem they told me to use a online storage like mega or rapidshare and go out and buy more hard drives 4 large backups any the online backup was not to be used for big backups 

i was more then a little insulted when i pay $117 a month for service i shouldn't have someone using  your name telling me to go and spend money somewhere else i feel that was very uncalled for and i am a bit pissed about it i hope someone high up in cox sees this and does something to change things 

whats the point?

The upload speeds for the connection should be much higher then that. Are you seeing the 600 Kbps on speed tests or other sites as well or just getting those results on the Online Backup?

For the 10TB though it would take months to use all of that storage due to the data plans for Ultimate. You can view the AUP information for Ultimate and the other residential tiers http://goo.gl/dGi1rX

Im sorry, I can't read your post. It is one sentence.  Is the issue a matter of upload to their backup server? If so, could you provide a tracert? Or do you suspect throttling? Im confused.
