The repos were probably syncing as Tex has loaded the new 2010.10 ISO's on the servers.

Did you try another repo Jesse813? It's sometimes worth switching to another repo as that may be "free"

that was probably the problem as they seem to be working fine now. I didn't try another Repo, but i was thinking about it, lets just say sometimes it takes a while for me to think of simple solutions while somehow the complicated ones get solved real quick it must the way my brain is functioning  ???
