Pacman ( download ) is very very slow

Hi guys!
I have a conection of 10 MB with firewall, but the pacman is making download with 30KB.
There is something wrong with the mirrors?

Thanks!

Hi Allan,

Yes, I'm using the mirrors of Brazil.

# Brazil
#Server = ftp://archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64
Server = http://archlinux.c3sl.ufpr.br/$repo/os/x86_64
Server = ftp://ftp.las.ic.unicamp.br/pub/archlin … /os/x86_64
Server = http://www.las.ic.unicamp.br/pub/archli … /os/x86_64
Server = http://pet.inf.ufsc.br/mirrors/archlinu … /os/x86_64

And before were quick
I tried other mirrors.

I know its obvious but did you try rerunning your rankmirrors as described in the Beginner's Guide.

It might find that the fastest servers aren't necessarily the closest ones. I run it about once month and my top mirrors seem to change regularly.
