Hi Linux Advocate,

I have found this a problem for the Australian servers I manage as  
well. I suggest you manually test the speed of some local mirrors then  
manually specify a mirror rather than relying on the fastest mirror  
plugin.

If your ISP mirrors content locally then that'd be the logical mirror  
to use.

Good luck,
Oliver
