Ubuntu Archive - Not connecting?

[Zertop]

Hi Guys,

Im having an issue where my ubuntu server will not go past 0% [Connecting to za.archive.ubuntu.com] [Connecting..... blah blah blah]

I have tried with servers all around the world but am having the same issue?

Another thing... when visiting these addresses, if you select the ubuntu path, it just has an infinite loop of the folder? Is that normal?

Thanks

EDIT: Another thing, DNS is resolving properly!

Fixed it. The issue involved Virtualbox. I was using a bridged mode and as soon as I switched over to NAT it worked just fine.

Out of interest sake, next time you do have this issue, please add the ip address it is resolving to, there are currently 2 mirrors server za.archive.ubuntu.com on different networks. 1 hosted by neology, another hosted by web africa.
