Low download speed

[Nigesh Shakya]

I am a KU student and I want to inform that I have installed Ubuntu
10.04 in my computer and I have also used the server http://archive.mitra.net.np/ubuntu;
but yet my download speed is not as fast as it should be.While my
friends are downloading packages at the rate of 500 kbps.I have used
world link for internet.What could be the reason behind this and the
possible solutions to it..Please reply??

Well, in that case you need to seek support from World Link.
And Nigesh, OS and the internet bandwidth are not related in any way.

Dear Nigesh:

The download speed for the ubuntu repo of mitra is good at KU because
we connect to the mitra's server through npIX, a high bandwidth
internet exchange.

But this high bandwidth link is only useful if your bandwidth is not
restricted by the network administrator. So make sure that you are not
connected to the internet through bandwidth restricted access point.
But at KU we have most of the traffic to npIX bypassed without
bandwidth restriction. Try to download the packages from library
access point. Also make sure that the mitra repo is enabled.

If the problem still persists meet me somewhere at the department. I
might help you out.
