Why does restoring from backup on iPhone 6 take 12 hours?

I trying to restore from a backup done just last night on my new iPhone 6. The backup was off my iPhone 6plus and done on my laptop. I didn't have the storage space in iCloud to do iCloud backup. It's taking 12 hours! I stopped it. Why is it doing this and how can I get my information back on my new phone? The iPhone 6 Plus iOS was not updated to the new iOS, but this one is, could that pose a major issue?

Could be for several reasons. Is your wifi signal strong? It shouldn't take near 12 hours. That's not normal. Why can't you restore to the back up you currently have in iCloud?
