You didn't tell us how the line speed is, could that be an issue? You could also look at if the files are small, small filesizes = bad performance.
if your network connection is speedy and the files are small you could compress chunks of the data before backing up. how does the backup perform from the local network? is it slow there too ? Backing up remote locations on a slow line could be improved using spooling. cheers So after some work with Comcast and tinkering around we found that the problem is actually Bacula. By doing speed tests from the client machine we saw that before we started using bacula it was around 25down 6up but when using Bacula the speed changed DRASTICALLY to .1MB/s down and .8 MB/s up. We stooped Bacula, remotely reset the modem and speeds were back to normal. 10mins later I started up Bacula and the speeds went right back down again. I again stopped Bacula, reset the modem(got speeds back up) and DIDN'T run Bacula and the speeds have been great for the past few hours.. So whenever Bacula is backing up this machine it takes it from 25Down/6Up all the way to .1Down/.8up There has to be something wrong here.
