Later today the servers www.stats.ox.ac.uk ftp.stats.ox.ac.uk used by tests/internet.R (and also for Windows package downloads) will transition to new hardware (on new IP addresses). This may make access unstable until the DNS changes propagate through and web caches get flushed, so please do not be alarmed if some of those tests fail occasionally. -- Brian D.
