apt-get very slow

apt-get takes at least 5 minutes to get past this line:


nicholas@nroth-linuxstick:~$ sudo apt-get update

You can try to change the server which you download the software packages.

Clicking on settings in software update, choose ubuntu's software and then change the server from which download the software.

See the image attached.
