Hi. Caledonian - the Linux repository machine at St Albans NN - has a serious disfunctional network connection. It could be that the network cable is bad, though I've tested it with another cable and had exactly the same results.
So it may be the network card, though it was picked up the last time I checked - a fortnight ago. Any clues?
