Updated my iPhone 4s to ios8 last night and have noticed that when the phone is plugged in to a power socket and wifi is on it's hammering the wifi with something, but I've no idea what.

I've checked all the settings that I can see and nothing is set to update in the background, no apps running, yet checking the traffic flow on my router I can see the phone is maxing out out internet connection (it's only 1.5Mbps so not that hard to do).

Unplugging the phone from the power stops it.

Nw I've seen this behaviour when the devices have an ios update pending it downloads in the background on devices when they are plugged in and on wifi (which is annoying in itself), but the device is up to date so what is it actually doing?

Any ideas??
 
Yeah I have everything turned off pretty much and it is annoying that it's still obviously doing stuff.

I left it for a while and it did just stop, no idea what it was up to.

Just frustrating when I'm on a naff connection as it as and the phone then decides to hog all the bandwidth :p
