    apt-get doesn't update

    I get the attached output for an apt-get update

    I know those locations exist. I can download the files from there when doing it with a webbrowser.
    I have web access from that computer. I even was able to wget files from that repo.
    I triple-checked the firewall, and as the example before also shows. this can hardly be the reason.
    My final guess was that something else with the syntax in that file is wrong but a different computer with this file works just fine.

    So please someone tell me what is going on. Is it possible that apt-get needs to have a weird port opened up apart from 80?

    Code:
    apt-get update

    It seems like the mirror could be down. Try again later or change your mirrors.

    Unfortunately not

    Thanks for the reply. It works at the same time but from a different computer. Any other ideas?

    and wget works as well. If i wget some random site even the ones mentioned in the output above i can download them. This is a problem only with apt-get it seems.
