Connection is broken by update server and update fails.

Recently, when I do system update which maybe too many packages (around 300), connection is broken by update server and update fails, but when I start update once more by command 'pacman -Syu' (which I always use it like this) system update succeeds.

Here is output from terminal:

error: failed to download file 'package1' from mirror.osbeck.com : Recv failure:  Connection has been disconnected by the other party
error: failed to download file 'package2' from mirror.osbeck.com : Send failure: Broken stream
warning: too many errors from mirror.osbeck.com, skipping for the remainder of this transaction
warning: some files failed to download
error: transaction failed (unexpected error)
Errors occurred, no packages were updated.

Packages are downloaded from server starting from biggest to smallest, so number of packages to connection break is not big, but download size of them is big  - server download limits?

Is this normal server behavior? Should I change server?

No.

Should I change server?

Yes ... at least for diagnostic purposes.  The mirror status page shows that osbeck.com is good so it may be at your end (your ISP).  But trying other mirrors would give a more conclusive test of this.

Maybe You can try to change mirror server?
