I have a weird problem...when I'm on wireless, the core repository updates fine but then the extra repository doesn't update.
[root@nathanb-micro ~]# pacman -Syu

Any ideas?

Have you tried using
XferCommand = /path/to/command %u
If set, an external program will be used to download all
remote files. All instances of %u will be replaced with
the download URL. If present, instances of %o will be
replaced with the local filename, plus a “.part”
extension, which allows programs like wget to do file
resumes properly.This option is useful for users who experience problems
with built-in http/ftp support, or need the more advanced
proxy support that comes with utilities like wget.
Also, try using other mirrors: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=142891

Try an alternative download manager in XferCommand but remmember not allow change server at download time or you db may be corrupted and pacman not check it at this time (only check packages not databases)
second have patience
tree use the mostest fast and updated repos ever in you mirrorlist
Well, I suppose that this is somekind of signature, no?

It appears that I was seeing another case of the problem reported here.
I played with the mirror list and removed all unnecessary mirrors, and things appear to be working now.
