I usually just try several times until it works (I use yum, not up2date). If you want to change mirrors, I've had success with ftp://mirror.linux.duke.edu ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu ftp://redhat.secsup.org ftp://ftp.dc.aleron.net I'm in southwest Ohio. In addition to FC2 I run FC3 test1 which gets hundreds of updates, and I get by OK on those mirrors. Can't promise they'll be perfect for up2date, but it's worth a shot.
