Dwonload speeds

Asked by Core i7 920

It seems like installing software with this takes a while. When I downloaded Cube 2: Sauerbraten through sauerbraten.org, it didnt take all that long but when I try using the software manager, it takes forever. I think download speeds need some improvements.

It depends on the mirror you are using. System -> Administration -> Software Sources, try a different mirror.

I don't have major problems with the downloading speeds. Some times takes more than others but not as much to complaining for it. I use the mirror in Portugal (ftp.ua.pt) and it works ok. Besides Megaupload, this mirror haves one of the major values I can get (13 Mbits).

Can you help with this problem?
