Accessing Backports

[jtmo3]

Is anyone else having prblems with getting things from backports. It used to download faily quick and without a problem. Within the last few days, it's gotten to where things won't hardly download and if they do it's in the bytes rather than Kb?

I've found the same thing in the past few days. I get some error when connecting actually... anyone know whats going on?

Sorry, I've got no answers. Just adding my name to the list of people having problems. My update manager tells me I have 4 updates, all are in the backports repository. But when I run the update, The download won't start.

Bumping this myself. Connection is S L O W , and times out a lot.

I finally just removed the backports from my list.. too many timeouts & errors.
