[PLUG] How to select best openSUSE Tumbleweed mirror?

[Vishal Rao]

Hello!

I'm running openSUSE Tumbleweed and facing slow download speeds with the
default server (download.opensuse.org) on my BSNL fiber connection. My plan
speed is 300 mbps but I get only around 20-40 mbps range while doing zypper
updates.

Reading the openSUSE wiki they say if you use the download.opensuse.org URL
it will auto select nearest/fastest mirror using MirrorBrain but doing a
nslookup with different DNS servers seems to return the SUSE owned server
in Germany.

I manually tried setting mirrors in Yast config including India (ESTO
internet servers) but all mirrors I tried seem to be missing the "updates"
repo.

Any suggestions? Does anyone else here use Tumbleweed and facing this issue?

Regards,
Vishal Rao
