1. are you using bittorrent or downloading while trying to update?
2. The servers are busy at times, but I usually get over 100 kbs down while updating and installing software.
3. You could have issues with the network device, or the driver, I would suggest running a speedtest to see how well you fare at that..

Hello,
perhaps is due to your DNS servers. you should give a try to OpenDNS.org
It did work for me.
