Qt 5-5 - Download Link problem

maximus

Trying to download the 633mb open-source Qt 5.5 here:
https://www.qt.io/download-open-source/#section-2

The download starts but it stops randomly after a while and does not complete the 633MB. (Qt 5.5.0 for Windows 32-bit (VS 2013, 633 MB) )
For example, try#1 : stopped at 70MB, try#2 stopped at 235MB, etc.

Using University Connection so may be a problem on the Qt hosting part..
Thanks

Again from another connection (home)
Is there a torrent or a more reliable download available?

@tekojo are you aware of any problem with the download server ?

tekojo

No known issues now.
Could be a really slow mirror.

@maximus you could try another mirror. You can get to them through the (info) link after the download name.

@tekojo

Thanks for the info!
Did just try the first mirror in my country (the only one), and it appears to be the problem (stopped again mid-download). Tried another one and it worked first try.

Found 1 mirror which handle this country (CA)
http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/qtproject/archive/qt/5.5/5.5.0/qt-opensource-windows-x86-msvc2013-5.5.0.exe (ca, prio 100)

Need a mirror in Québec IMO :)
No sure of the procedure, but maybe I could get one at "ulaval.ca", let me know if I need to do anything
Thanks!

@maximus happy that helped.

I'll need to check how mirrorbrain is updated. I don't do that myself.
