[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1015875, member: 24160"] It is always recommended to do the initial backup via ethernet. With 275GB to backup it'll probably take 2-4 hours (just guessing here)with a CAT5e cable and all night if you have an older CAT5 cable that'll only handle 10MBps like I just ran into here at the house. Had to go through my collection and toss all those old cables after that. I'm really surprised you can even connect from the 3rd floor at all. [/QUOTE]
