the default mirror list. If up2date and rhn-applet are looking at the same mirror you won't have any problem.
Tried both the mirrorlist and fast local mirrors (e.g. ftp://mirrors.kernel.org, ftp://mirror.stanford.edu, and ftp://limestone.uoregon.edu among others) and continue to encounter this problem.
What mirror are you using to get such good results?
I can't recommend you a good US American mirror, but using out German mirror at TU Chemnitz I face no real problem with up2date. Since the first day with FC1 I am using no other tool than up2date here on my desktop PC. It may be not the fastest horse, but up2date works for me without the often reported major issues. And I am just patient when updates are announced to let the mirror sync with the master 'borg cube'. William already gave a good hint while I am typing.
