You can try other mirrors displayed at http://www.debian.org/mirrors/list You can check http://www.debian.org/mirrors/ftpmirror.en.html#wherefrom 2/ If ever you want to use ftp.us.debian.org, check http://www.debian.org/mirrors/ftpmirror.en.html#wherefrom : it explains that you have to explicit which mirror in ftp.us.debian.org (which is a round robin) you want to use, if you don't do that, the sync might not work. If you need further explaintation on top of the webpages, don't hesitate to reply to the bug itself.
