I just moved back from arch to ubuntu to check in on how it's doing, and when I tried to do apt-get update, it took 30 minutes. Then, when I started to do apt-get upgrade, it took an hour and only downloaded 10 MiB. I've never seen this before. I've tried changing mirrors, no help. Thanks for the help. Here's my server's file:

Also, if I ping it, it works as expected:

johnsmith@Inspiron-3647:/etc/apt$ ping in.archive.ubuntu.com -c 3

Did you try another mirror? – Takkat Nov 4 '16 at 10:30
    
Yes I have tried changing mirrors – Jatin Kaushal Nov 4 '16 at 11:23
    
Check this: connecting to archive.ubuntu.com takes too long – JonasCz Nov 4 '16 at 12:46
    
I've tried that. Didn't work – Jatin Kaushal Nov 4 '16 at 14:06
