If synaptic has no way of setting package repositories (I use Kpackage which
does), you'll need to edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list and put in the
correct URLs. Make sure you follow the format of the existing entries, or
read man sources.list for a description of how they work.
The Agnula site also outlines what to put in sources.list:

Don't rule out the possibility that this is just a temporary problem, say,
with their server, or even your ISP.
HTH,
