UbuntuNight is a website of service platform co-established by Ubuntu fans from all over the world to provide a more agile & easy-to-use Ubuntu Linux. All are on the way of development.
The newest released module is TOP-MIRROR,which providing all available mirrors sorted by three ways: top-fast is based on average download speed,top-near is by your geographical position(normally close to your country),top-stable is by download speed variance statics.
As network and mirror server status may change from time to time,we will search and test the mirror periodically, and update the latest information for you.
Top mirror module supports Ubuntu 10.04 LTS(Lucid Lynx) , 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) , 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) now,but you can modify souceslist to ajust to your system if mirror supported.
You can choose a top-fast mirror,or by your own preference, download its sourceslist (what's sourceslist?) to the directory "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/" or simply overwrite the file "/etc/apt/sources.list".We also strongly recommend you to backed up your original source list file before overwriting.You should change "CODE" bellow to your Ubuntu codename,ie,lucid,marerick,or natty,default is "lucid"(ie,URL without "?CODE" request string, tihs is to compatible with older entry).
Above instructions in command line are also available for advanced users(
make sure you have backup original "sources.list" file and changed "CODE" to your Ubuntu release codename.):
