Airtel Broadband hate Ubuntu users?



For the zillionth time today I faced problem accessible Ubuntu servers while using Synaptics.

Especially these two servers:

US.ARCHIVE.UBUNTU.COM
ARCHIVE.UBUNTU.COM

    Same! Same! I’ve been bugging both Airtel and Ubuntu Forums users about this, without success.

    Use the Japanese mirror. Works flawlessly. There’s also a mirror at the IIT Madras website, but it’s frequently down. Also, there’s a website called UK Mirror Service that mirrors repositories for major Linux distros.
