When I pacman-Syu, it fluctuates between 200kb to 500kb

I checked my internet speed at fast.com and it says 490Mbps

Something isn’t right.

Reflector is doing its job. I checked /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist and saw the last updated time is very recent (today).

I like to use reflector with -f and -l arguments... It always gives me the best combination of servers

The command I use is

reflector -f 10 -l 5 --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

I’ll try these options next time! Thanks
