MD5sum mismatch


Hello everyone,

Recently, whenever I run "apt-get update" all the packages from mirrors.kernel.org have an MD5sum mismatch, regardless of how many times I run the command. Does anyone else have this problem? Any recommendations on how to fix this (i.e. possibly altering my internet connection or transfer protocol)?

Thank you

Sounds like a bad mirror sync if it persists try using ftp2.de.debian.org as a mirror source it is usually pretty fast. If you want to use it as http then the line would look like this.

Code:
deb http://ftp2.de.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
