This is a great tool to collect the relevant mirrors and identify > the 'closest' to your place. I tried using netselect-apt I have a couple of concerns with it. 1. there seems no way of generating entries for both testing and unstable files. 2. The utility returned mirrors that were not complete. I am now using mirror.pacific.net.au which seems to have resolved my problems. mirror.aarnet.edu.au is missing some files and I have notified them of this.
