Hi,

I am trying to make all the updates my system need's manually. I like to
see what I am doing, instead of counting on a wizard to do it for me.
But today I decided to check out may mandrake 8.1 auto update util (from
the mandrake control center). Its working fine, but damm slow. There are
a list of mirror's to choose from, but most of them are .nl or .jp which
are not very close to us. I am connected via cables, and I am getting
500-800kbps from iix sometimes, and about 200-300 from outside Israel in
most cases. When downloading from those mirrors, the rates are
20-30kbps, at the most. It's a shame, don't you think ? I was wondering,
are there are any mandrake users on this list that know of a
better/closer mirror to update from ? I just hate letting all that
bandwidth go to waist ;)
