mirror.centos.org down? Can not update

Can not reach mirror.centos.org, therefore addons on the update fail:

Hmm. It seems that there is some problem with the mirror that uses that specific IP address (91.201.202.12) but not with mirror.centos.org iteself.

By now the problem has solved itself as it were. Maybe they restarted the server. Thanks for your reaction.

Yes, I would tend to agree with your analysis.

My apologies. I have just noticed your total post count. I should have previously said --
