Alot of ISP give un-metered access or faster access to there ubuntu
mirror, 

and only 3 mirrors are listed under other. and there is 11 known mirrors
in the country (source
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/LocalAptMirrors)

So sometimes it's worth the extra effort. to use the command line. or
gedit to manually edit the sources.list file.
