| @drupol:matrix.org | Hey, do you have any idea why cache.nixos.org could be extremely slow at work? I contacted the helpdesk, and they confirmed there are no restrictions on their side... they suggested the issue might be external. The behaviour is strange: downloading just 30 MB takes around 15 minutes. It seems to follow a repeating pattern: the connection works normally for 1–2 seconds, then pauses for about 30 seconds, and this cycle continues indefinitely until the end. Nix is barely usable here :( Any idea how I could further investigate or troubleshoot this? Thanks! | 12:39:15 |

| @drupol:matrix.org | 20% loss somewhere... that's weird. | 13:00:30 |
 hexa | intermediate losses at routers is normal | 13:00:54 |
| @drupol:matrix.org | 27% now :S | 13:01:10 |
| hexa | the traceroute not completing could be a red flag | 13:01:14 |
| @drupol:matrix.org | Ok... | 13:01:14 |
| @drupol:matrix.org | yeah that's so weird :( | 13:01:35 |
| @drupol:matrix.org | I have that thing running for now 30 minutes: | 13:02:01 |
