difficulty downloading packages, is ftp.us.debian.org having a problem?

Hi everyone,

I keep trying to download a big pile of packages and most of them keep failing.
Internet is working and I can ping things, but most of the packages always fail.

I'm wondering if ftp.us.debian.org is really overloaded or something?

Thanks,
Britton
