I try to install Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS.

enter image description here

but after more than 8 hours the installation still is not finished.

Before, I chose Normal Installation, Download updates while installing Ubuntu, and Install third-party software.

As Download updates while installing Ubuntu need internet connection, I had connect to internet:

See Speedtest

I think my internet is quite smooth, or do I need a faster internet connection than 10Mbps to download the software updates..?

I use Dell Inspiron and Here is my laptop specs:

I have tried to reinstall it many times, re-download the Ubuntu from the official website, but the installation time is still too long and it does not finish.

So.. how to solve this problem..?

    10mbps should be fine, same for your specs. There seems to be another issue. Is the first image where it's stuck ?

    Try to open a terminal and run tail -f /var/log/installer/debug while installing as suggested by this answer. If that works, add the output to your question.

    1. Try to compare checksum of downloaded iso, 2. try another usb stick, maybe this one is corrupt.

I have solved this issue by turning off my internet connection during installation as ptetteh227 suggested.

Maybe I got this issue because of an internet connection problem while running updates during installation.
