Something I always try to do whenever I am updating Ubuntu 12.04 packages is make sure I will be downloading them from the closest/best mirror/server.




  1. Begin by launching the software center.


  2. Select edit from the menu bar, then select Software Sources. ..




Software Center Edit Menu




  1. Click the drop down arrow for the Download From options.



Package Sources download options




  1. Choose other.



other download server




  1. Click "Select Best Server."



Selecting Best download server ubuntu 12.04




  1. Software center will now perform a series of tests to find the best mirror for your location.
