      I want to backup a share to Backblaze. The problem is I have a 60/10 connection and it will take about a month to do.....

      Is there a way to prioritize all other traffic over the Backblaze traffic so it doesn't interfere with the day to day stuff?

        @oguruma As with many things with computers, FILTER the Backblaze traffic and place it on a low priority queue. How exactly filter? find out what UNIQUE about this Backblaze thing, uses a special port? writing to a fixed WAN IP? FTP protocol? etc-etc-etc.
