Harvey I love your kung-fu, but will try it if this attemp fails again
I was stuck at 10kbps max for that same pkg and on my side the thing is massive, like 1.1GB in size but now for some reason after me insisting a lot like a dictator it's now pulling at 252kbps which is far better than 10kbps and it have moved from 49% where it was stuck to 52%

    @Harvey method works
    I can attest because It's now installing everything, I have hope even if it is now only the 23rd pkg installing
    it's a fresh PC so I have great expectations, thanks guys!
    Just the concerned Team have to investigate deeply, in my case it was a fresh install and I'm not a noob and know about the forum where I can check but a noob would have been lost would go crazy in a manner like "Solus isn't good..." just because of that, so please investigate deeply.
    Thanks!

    Harvey worked all day just got home and have no idea why a kernel download was waiting after installing one last night. when that wouldn't dowload I use yr instructions and now I'm fine.
    Just didn't see anything in this thread about a new kernel superseding the one I installed last night.

      Heh... interesting, unstable:

      vs stable:

      size is different...
      is there any difference between stable/unstable? It's the same server right?

        Harvey No idea wtf is going on with the CDN. For people who still have an issue cancel the update and do this

        Thanks for posting that workaround. It solved the issue for my Plasma laptop, but there are a number of other machines and VMs here that can wait a bit before updating, if necessary. What are the chances that the CDN issue will be resolved in a day or two if I'm patient enough to wait a while?

        Or should I just bite the bullet and get started on updating them all now, based on the workaround? It occurs to me that Solus may not be the only account that's affected by this, and others - somewhere - may be a work on a fix already.

            Hello,
            Yesterday on a PC, I used the commands provided by Harvey, it worked without a problem.
            This morning, I updated 2 other PCs normally via Discover, the problem seems to be solved, the updates downloaded and installed normally.

            Big problems as mentioned by other users
            Update with 40kb/s till it stops completely.
            Normal internet speed, installing Apps, fast as usual.
            Never ever had that before with solus.

                After the linux-firmware workaround, gnome-software picked up everything else and restarted to update with no further problems.

                I was only using my 15.6" Lenovo Ideapad yesterday, the firmware update was really slow so I canceled it, then did via terminal a few hours later as I really needed to get some work done, and it fixed itself finding another server, but my 2 desktops, and other 14.1" Lenovo laptop today both failed to find the other server via terminal only downloading at around 400 Kbps max but, to note I'm on 5G internet with speeds of almost 900 Mbps down line of site of the tower, but the fix posted here worked, I just hope it's fixed for good soon, as I have several family members on Solus, & don't want to be doing tech support calls this week LOL!

                  do harvey's workaround near the top. it worked fine for the new kernel. I have a Lenovo thinkcentre but think this problems was hardware-agnostic.

                      brent I already did, I was just reporting my experience, & that I hope it gets a full fix soon, as I don't want to be doing tech support for family this week. 😅✌️

                          yeah well this thread made my head dizzy 🙂. No one answered my question why I installed a new kernel that night then another new kernel on waking. this cdn thing was truly an anomaly.
