Yes. I tried the .uk. and .de. mirrors with marginal improvement.
Just now I defined ftp.us.debian.org as 128.30.2.36 (MIT mirror) in
/etc/hosts. Marginal change. /etc/hosts reverted.
Installed the https transport package to try https: in sources.list. But now I
see a few "Failed to connect to 2001:500:61:28::70: Network is unreachable"
(or address 2607:ea00:101:3c0b:207:e9ff:fe00:e595). Why are any IPV6 addrs
being used?
