For example, here in Australia, Telstra have a local mirror of most of Ubuntu 8.04. They are at "deb http://mirror.gamearena.com.au/ubuntu gutsy-security main restricted" etc, etc. I don't think the "Find Fastest Repository" takes this repo into account. For me (being a Telstra cable customer) it is most definitely the fastest mirror, but doesn't show up. How does it know which sites to test for ?
