A friend is having problems downloading the 9.3 iso it seems even with broadband the estimate is 250 hours That is ridiculous. downloads of ISO from other sites are not so slow. So its not his ISP.

Anyone else having this problem??

While the SuSE site is available, everyone is encouraged to use a mirror, for just that reason.
