db.XX.clamav.net are round robin records that points to more than 1
mirror.

That's already the case, when freshclam cannot download the CVD from
one mirror, it automatically switches to the next one in the RR.

db.in.clamav.net should point to db.asia.clamav.net which is made up of
13 mirrors. It's unlikely that all 13 mirrors are down at the same time,
which makes me think that you have connectivity problems on your side.

Please run freshclam in verbose mode. My guess is that for some reason
your freshclam always tries the same ip address *or* you have
connectivity problems.

Best regards
