Yeah, thanks, but I have tried a few of the mirrors and they are pretty
slow - 30-40KB/s

That is why I posted here and asked about the FASTEST mirrors.

Try ftp://slackware.mirrors.tds.net using wget. I'm getting up 120 K/s,
right now. If you aren't, try late at night or in the wee hours. If you
still are slow, it sucks to be you.

Yes, even slower than 40KB/s

Has the slackware usenet group descended to this level of support? (This
level meaning less than zero)
