I clicked on all the North American HTTP links on http://mirrors.opensuse.org/ trying to find which mirrors zypper should be able to find.
http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/mirrorsNA20170727map.jpg shows a typical best/preferred mirrors result from opening a .mirrorlist link.
Hi Felix for which parts/sections - distro, tumbleweed, repos, ports, isos etc?
Lately all such results have an Atlantic Ocean between them and my FL location near Tampa, upwards of 6600km as the crow flies to the ENE. By contrast, Provo is less than 3000km away, and most other NA mirrors are closer, such as gatech.edu in Atlanta less than 450km distant.
My depressing findings are color coded on: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/osmirrors201707.html
Hi Felix most of what you have marked with yellow appears to be as expected - you see no tick in the "repositories" column, so they don't mirror repositories. (or cannot properly sync it). For e.g. http://opensuse.cs.utah.edu/opensuse/, it is a bad mirror config, there is no /opensuse, only /. See https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/20964 For the ones marked in red, mirrorbrain at least knows about it, no tick marks on the right. Some are poor DNS configs, e.g. mirrors[12].kernel.org. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (22.9°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mirror+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: mirror+owner@opensuse.org
