NixOS ISO Download Speeds.
Hey there NixOS community.
I'm an Arch user moving over to Nix but I'm currently struggling with ISO downloads and that is making me really question the connection to the Nix Cache for package downloads.
Currently I can only download the ISO at no more than 400kbps and my home internet is a Gigabit line. Downloads from everywhere else are fine and I have ruled out any network, hardware or VPN issues.
I think my question here is if I bite the bullet and go through the painfully slow ISO download, are the actual package downloads any better. Is the community struggling with this currently and should I resort to using the Beta Cache that's posted on the official Nix Wiki?
