I have a lan connection with average download speed of about 5-6 MBps. But ubuntu software centre doesn't download at that speed. I even checked my speed by downloading from other sources but they were giving a download speed in Mbps. Is there a way I can boost up speed because downloading packages as big in Giga Bytes can become cumbersome at speed of 70-100 Kbps.

Perhaps you could follow this article as to how use mirror-servers. The python-script seems promising, but adds manual labour.

  • Ah yes, because your one-liner as a comment is so much more elaborate? Fair enough, point taken, I will better my life!

  • My one liner does say possible duplicate. As you have 34 reputation, you can't see it currently, but this has 2 close votes, and will be in the close queue - so other users with 3000 rep + will also vote to close. We like to close as duplicate so that there ins't knowledge floating around all over the place, it's all together.
