As others have said it's your upload speed that's the issue, most ISP's quote speeds in the dowload speed. Most "good" cloud DR/backup companies have a way to "seed" the backup - send a hard drive to them and they upload it to their storage so it will only be incremental after that.

I am on my 6th evaluation of cloud backup vendors and they are all over the road with offerings. The best solution is one that does a local backup with deduplication and compression and sends to cloud as well. You can do quick recoveries from local storage and the cloud is more of a total disaster recovery solution.
