Describe the bug
When I manually start a backup by pressing the 'Start backup' button at the bottom of the backup page, it takes around ~1 minute before any uploading starts.
It's a bit annoying that it doesn't start instantly.

How many asset do you have on the device? This process usually start instantly.

Have you tried using local IP to see if this is related to network issue?

I think it's a network issue, you're right.
I've tried a local IP and it worked instantly.
I'm using an NGINX reverse proxy + Cloudflare, so I'll investigate those two services.
