Is any one else noticing that iCloud is killing there wifi. I have one iPhone and 2 iPads all with iCloud switched on and fully backed up, however when the devices are switched on my wifi slows down massively. If I switch the devices off the wifi speeds up. I have left all the devices for days to sync and backup which they all report is complete.

Is iCloud just constantly syncing, if so I can't work out what data it is moving.
Anyone else having this problem

I have an iPhone 4 and an iPad 1 both running iOS 5 and I do not notice my Wi-Fi slowing down. I can still download at 1 mbps.

I'm using a Time Capsule. Maybe it's gt it's self in a constant sync if there is a bit if corrupted data. Maybe a reset of everything and delete the iCloud data and start again
