      Hi is there a way I can do a connection test to my mirror that I download from in ssh. Since I think it's still down but I wanna try to see if I can do a connection test to it.

      I'm pretty sure my mirror comes from University of Maryland, but now I'm kinda wondering if it got switched to West Virginia University. I was trying to update Raspian last night and no luck, and if I'm right the Retropie updates come from the mirror you use in your specific region correct?

        @RedBatman I just realized we live in the same area!

        Also, couldn't find anything to test the mirror, but I did find a connection test for the internet. Maybe try that. https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-test-internet-connection-download-upload-speed/

          @itsnitro Out of curiosity would you mind try updating Raspian or download something to see if you can?
