    Maybe whatever mirror you use isn't working as I've been on it at least once every day for the past few weeks.

    Indeed, the mirror that I defaulted too was down and I didnt have a list
    handy. Someone on Amiga.org sorted me out with another mirror address B-)

    Well, you can see the list of mirrors on http://wiki.aminet.net
    Usually it's a good idea to not use a specific mirror. Aminet uses a DNS-based round-robin distribution via aminet.net address.
    For example I'm operating de6.aminet.net mirror and I make all Aminet files available to Fidonet/AmingaNet. If there's interest, I can connect you this.
