Topic: Cannot download from Contribs

[eschmitke]

Hello,

For the past three days I have been unable to download any of the release iso's. Is there a server problem on your end? Are there any other mirrors out there than I can use?

Thank you.

Thanks for your post. As of now, I am downloading them with at a very quick pace.

I was a bit alarmed at this, so I checked it out. The three mirrors below are working, all downloaded small files fine. The SME7 alpha file download started, but I stopped it because the connection is slow.

contribs was about 45k/sec
ibiblio was <30k/sec

planetmirror, however, did fine ~250k/sec

downloaded the whole alpha iso in approx 20 min

Our software is available to us, we just either need to be patient or take the time to look around.

I don't seem to have a problem either (or I couldn't host them or provide a mirror)

When I tried to download from Contribs.org, it would start at 60kbs, then turn down to about 18kbs. After about half an hour, the download would acutally terminate.

Tried this, with the exact same results, on three separate ISP networks.

The mirror site that was provide worked perfectly though.

Thanks again for your help,
Evan.
