Downloading Hoary with jigdo

I'm having problems downloading the latest Hoary iso using jigdo.
The mirror I'm using is [ftp://mirror.isp.net.au/pub/ubuntu/
The first problem is that only about 20% of files are being found.
The second and far worse problem is that frequently after a download of a
largish file (> 1 meg), the entire process stalls without copying said file
into the iso.
I've tried a few of the mirrors listed on
http://www.ubuntulinux.org/download/
which all just give me 404 errors and no download.
The ones I tried were Australia, the three USA, and 1 UK all giving the same
errors.
NB I've been using jigdo to keep updated isos for Debian Sarge for months
now. The process is so reliable that I now udpdate Debian automatcally by
script whenever the .jigdos are updated.
Clues anyone?
Bob
