This is typical for me getting data from .tw sites.

Then ... find the fastest mirrors and don't use the default.

We can't possibly try to program in thnigs like this on our end.

The fastestmirror script actually makes a connection to the mirrors in question, the lower ones should be the best ones. It is possible that is not the cause, but we can't test for that.

You can, however, remark out the "mirrorlist=" line and instead add several baseurl=<server_path> lines yourself that you want to use.

Then you get updates from where ever you want

Is there a way to coax several hosts behind the same caching proxy to use the same URL as the 1st choice but still fail over and try others if there is a problem? And preferably without having to manually edit files on each machine or coordinate choices.
