It'll only reconnect for every 10 files. At least the latest version does, you may have to upgrade wget. (Not that that'll make a major difference in speed...) If you want better response times, HTTP is usually the superior protocol. > I want to login to an ftp server and get as many files > as I can. I've tried several mirrors. Due to the way wget works (no HTTP pipelining support), it'll never be quite as fast as downloading the whole big ISO in one go. > Are the mirrors up to date? Yes. > Is the mirrors list up to date? Mostly. Check <http://www.debian.org/misc/README.mirrors> for the latest list. > Is there a way to keep jigdo connected to a server? It already does that for FTP. It also does it for HTTP servers which support HTTP 1.1 (i.e. most of them). > What will define "official" images?

That sounds strange - jigdo certainly isn't /that/ slow...
